Solution

To determine the range of g(x)=x2 g(x) = \left\lfloor \frac{x}{2} \right\rfloor , follow these steps:

  1. Understand the function: The function g(x)=x2 g(x) = \left\lfloor \frac{x}{2} \right\rfloor involves the floor function, which returns the greatest integer less than or equal to the input.

  2. Analyze the input: For any real number x x , x2 \frac{x}{2} can be any real number. The floor function will then map this real number to the nearest integer less than or equal to it.

  3. Determine the output: Since x2 \frac{x}{2} can be any real number, the floor function will produce all possible integers. For example:

    • If x=0 x = 0 , g(x)=0=0 g(x) = \left\lfloor 0 \right\rfloor = 0 .
    • If x=1 x = 1 , g(x)=0.5=0 g(x) = \left\lfloor 0.5 \right\rfloor = 0 .
    • If x=2 x = 2 , g(x)=1=1 g(x) = \left\lfloor 1 \right\rfloor = 1 .
    • If x=1 x = -1 , g(x)=0.5=1 g(x) = \left\lfloor -0.5 \right\rfloor = -1 .
    • If x=2 x = -2 , g(x)=1=1 g(x) = \left\lfloor -1 \right\rfloor = -1 .
  4. Identify the range: Since x2 \frac{x}{2} can be any real number, and the floor function maps any real number to an integer, the range of g(x) g(x) is all integers.

Therefore, the range of g(x)=x2 g(x) = \left\lfloor \frac{x}{2} \right\rfloor is: Range=Z \text{Range} = \mathbb{Z} where Z \mathbb{Z} denotes the set of all integers.
