Answer

Hi Farhaini,
When x=0, f(0)=1. This is not the minimum value of the function, because the graph is V-shaped.
From 0 \leq x \leq t,
f(x) decreases from 1 to 0 at t,
then from t \leq x \leq 5,
f(x) increases from 0 to 14.

So the range would be 0 \leq f(x) \leq 14, where 0 is the minimum value and 14 is the maximum value. Range is always from the minimum value to the maximum value of f(x), found by using the given domain.
