Find the Domain y=2x+5
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of function. The given equation
y=2*x+5 is a linear function, which is a specific 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 possible input values. Since any real number can be multiplied by
2 and then added to5 to produce a real output, the variablex can be any real number.Express the domain in interval notation. The set of all real numbers is represented as
(−∞,∞)
