See below.

The domain of a function relates to its $x$ value, or in this case, $t$ . The range is the function, or $h(t)$ .

$1/0$ is undefined, which happens when $t=0$ , so the domain does not include zero.

Since the denominator is squared, the range of the function will never be negative.

As $t$ approaches infinity, $h(t)$ approaches $0$ .
As $t$ approaches zero, $h(t)$ also approaches $oo$ .

Thus, the domain is $(oo,0)uu(0,oo)$ , and the range is $(0,oo)$ .

How do you find the domain and range of h(t) = 1/(t^2)h(t) = 1/(t^2)?
