I need to explain the answer so how do I find the range looking at the graph

The range is the set of all possible y values.

So the range is -5<=y<=4?

That is what it appears to be from the graph.

 

Of course it could be  4.99 or 4.001 rather than 4 but    [-5,4]  is close and probably correct.
