Answer

Domain: $(-\infty,\infty)$ Range: $(5,\infty)$

Work Step by Step

F is defined for all real numbers t. Rewriting, $F(t)=t^{2}+2t+1+4=(t+1)^{2}+5$ we see that the graph of $t^{2}$ is shifted left by one unit and raised by 5. Therefore, the function $F(t) $ has a minimum value of 5. So, the range of F is $(5,\infty)$ Domain: $(-\infty,\infty)$ Range: $(5,\infty)$
