y in[1,oo)

Explanation:

"We require the vertex and whether it is a max/min"
"turning point"

y=2x^2+1

"is symmetrical about the y-axis and the coordinates of"
"it's vertex are"

"vertex "=(0,1)

"since "a>0" then it has a minimum turning point "uuu

"range is "y in[1,oo)
graph{2x^2+1 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
