f(x)=-5x+4 find the domain of a function?
the domain are all the valid values x can have for this function, all x values are allowed. here is an example where x=0 is not allowed f(x)= 1/x ( because dividing by 0 is not allowed) here is one where x must be ≥0 (0 or bigger) f(x)= sqrt(x) (because you are not allowed to take the sqrt of neg numbers)
Honestly I did not understand the concept at all. The answer in the book is all real numbers? how we find it?
The idea is that f(x) has a value for every (valid) x. Unless you know otherwise, all x are valid. In other words, for any x you can think of, if you put that value into your expression, you can find f(x). The domain is (-infinity, +infinity) or all real numbers. However, there are functions where this will not be true. See my post for such examples.
how will u find this one?
