Find the Domain and Range g(x)=-3sec(2x+4)-1

$g (x) = - 3 \sec (2 x + 4) - 1$

Set the argument in $\sec (2 x + 4)$ equal to $\frac{π}{2} + π n$ to find where the expression is undefined.

$2 x + 4 = \frac{π}{2} + π n$ , for any integer $n$

Solve for $x$ .

Subtract $4$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 x = \frac{π}{2} + π n - 4$

Divide each term in $2 x = \frac{π}{2} + π n - 4$ by $2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $2 x = \frac{π}{2} + π n - 4$ by $2$ .

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{2}}{2} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{2}}{2} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{\frac{π}{2}}{2} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.

$x = \frac{π}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Multiply $\frac{π}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}$ .

Multiply $\frac{π}{2}$ by $\frac{1}{2}$ .

$x = \frac{π}{2 \cdot 2} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Multiply $2$ by $2$ .

$x = \frac{π}{4} + \frac{π n}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Divide $- 4$ by $2$ .

$x = \frac{π}{4} + \frac{π n}{2} - 2$

The domain is all values of $x$ that make the expression defined.
