Find the Domain y=ax+b
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of function. The expression
y=a*x+b is a linear function, wherea andb are constants.Analyze the expression for restrictions. A function's domain is restricted if there are denominators that could be zero, square roots of negative numbers, or logarithms of non-positive numbers.
Determine the constraints. Since
a*x+b is a polynomial of degree one, it is defined for all real numbersx There are no values ofx that would make the expression undefined.State the domain in interval notation. The set of all real numbers is represented as
(−∞,∞)
