what is the domain for g(x) = 128x

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this is a linear equation and it's a polynomial both of which have the domain of the set of all real numbers

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this is because you can plug any number you want in for x and you'll always get some real number result out for g(x)

can you give me an example? i'm so lost on this stuff. :/

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

think of any number you want

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um 10

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

then plug it in for x and you'll find that the result is some real number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so pretty much the domain is all real numbers?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so x = 10 g(x) = 128x g(10) = 128*10 g(10) = 1280 notice how we got a real number result

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

thank you!
