Domain for h(x)h(x) is x<=-4x4 and x>=4x4. Range for h(x)h(x) is (-oo,-3)(,3).

Explanation:

It is apparent that x^2-16>0x216>0, hence we must x<=-4x4 or x>=4x4 and that is the domain for h(x)h(x).

Further the least value for sqrt(x^2-16)x216 is 00 and it can up to oo.

Hence range for h(x)=-sqrt(x^2-16)-3h(x)=x2163 is from a minimum of -oo to maximum of -33 i.e. (-oo,-3)(,3).
