Question

The domain of a function corresponds to the (independent/ dependent) variable, whereas the range of a function corresponds to the (independent/ dependent) variable.

Answer 1

The domain of a function corresponds to the independent variable, whereas the range of a function corresponds to the dependent variable.

Let's take an example.
$y=\frac{1}{x}$

Here, $y$ dependent on $x.$
$\therefore$ The values $y$ corresponds to the range of the function, whereas values of $x$ correspond to the domain.

Here, $x$ can have any value other than $0$ as any number divided by zero leads to an undefined number.
$\therefore$ The domain consists of all real numbers except $0.$

Similarly, the range consists of all real numbers except $0$ as $\frac{1}{x}$ will never result in $0.$
