Can someone please tell me what the range is?

  y > -1.5 which is the same as y > -3/2

Explanation:

As x goes off to negative infinity, the term 3^x gets closer to 0.

So the expression 0.5*(3^x - 3) approaches 0.5*(0-3) = 0.5*(-3) = -1.5 = -3/2

The y value will never actually get to -1.5 because 3^x never actually reaches 0. It only gets closer and closer.

So the range is the set of possible y outputs such that y > -1.5 or y > -3/2

This means the horizontal asymptote is y = -3/2 or y = -1.5 which is the horizontal "electric fence" of sorts that the function curve gets closer to, but never touches.

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation

do you have an easier question cause this shh is hard like theheck
