Find the Domain 2x+5y=800
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of equation. This is a linear equation in two variables,
x andy Determine the context of the variables. In a standard mathematical context without specific constraints (like physical dimensions or quantities that must be positive),
x andy can be any real numbers.Solve for
y in terms ofx to see if there are any restrictions such as division by zero or square roots of negative numbers.
Analyze the resulting function. Since
y=160−2/5*x is a polynomial (specifically a linear function), it is defined for all real values ofx Conclude that the domain is the set of all real numbers.
