Find the Domain y=0.5x+1
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of function. The given equation
y=0.5*x+1 is a linear function, which is a type of polynomial function.Check for restrictions. In a polynomial function, there are no denominators containing variables (which could lead to division by zero) and no even-indexed roots (which could lead to imaginary numbers).
Determine the set of all possible input values. Since any real number can be multiplied by
0.5 and added to1 the variablex can be any real number.Express the domain in interval notation. The set of all real numbers is represented as
(−∞,∞)
