How can you determine the domain of a relation from its graph? (I know what a domain is, and I know what a relation is, but I am confused on how to determine the domain from a graph)
The domain is always the x-value, correct?
you can look at the equation and look at the "x" values, plug in the "x" values until the equation is correct
yeah basically lol
The domain is all the possible x-values of a function. for example the domain of y=x is all real numbers because x can be any number and the function will still hold true. it gets trickier with trig, rational, logarithmic, exponential, and root functions that can limit your domain. for example with y=sqrt(x), you can't have a square root of a negative number so x has to be greater than or equal to 0. That means your domain is x>=0.
