What is the range of (f(x)=\frac{3}{x^2+2}-5)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ((-5,-\frac{7}{2}])

The direct answer is option A: the range is (−5,−7/2]. Put t=x². Since x²≥0, t≥0, so x²+2≥2. Consequently 0<3/(x²+2)≤3/2. The largest value 3/2 occurs when x=0. The fraction never equals 0, although it approaches 0 as |x| becomes very large. Subtracting 5 shifts every value left by 5, giving −5< f(x)≤−5+3/2=−7/2. Thus the range is (−5,−7/2]. Option A correctly excludes −5 and includes −7/2. Option B wrongly includes −5, which is impossible for a finite x. Option C is the range of the fraction before subtracting 5, not of the complete function. Option D is wrong because the function is always greater than −5 and never reaches values below it. Exam cue: a positive reciprocal has an open lower endpoint when its denominator can grow without limit.
