Math Problem Statement
Find the domain of the function f(x) = -7x + 5.
Solution
The function given in the image is:
This is a linear function, and linear functions are defined for all real values of . Since there are no restrictions such as division by zero or taking the square root of a negative number, the domain of this function is all real numbers.
In interval notation, the domain is:

- How would the domain change if the function were ?
- Can a linear function ever have a restricted domain? Under what conditions?
- How does the slope of the function affect its graph?
- What is the x-intercept of the function ?
Tip: Always remember that linear functions have an unrestricted domain, but if you encounter square roots or denominators, check for restrictions.
