Math Problem Statement

Since the given function f(x) = 1/4x − 1/7 is linear, its domain is as follows

Solution

The given function f(x)=14x17f(x) = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{7} is a linear function.

For linear functions, the domain is typically all real numbers because they are defined for every value of xx.

So, the domain of the function f(x)=14x17f(x) = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{7} is:

Domain=Ror(,)\text{Domain} = \mathbb{R} \quad \text{or} \quad (-\infty, \infty)
