If \(f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) has range \([-2,\infty)\) and \(f(x)=(x-a)^2+b\), which of the following pairs \((a,b)\) is possible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \((a,b)=(5,-2)\)

Since \((x-a)^2\ge 0\), the function \(f(x)=(x-a)^2+b\) has minimum value \(b\), attained at \(x=a\). Hence its range is \([b,\infty)\). The given range \([-2,\infty)\) requires \(b=-2\), while \(a\) may be any real number. Therefore, \((5,-2)\) is a possible pair. Exam tip: In this form of a quadratic function, the lower endpoint of the range is the constant term \(b\).
