FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST OR FIVE STARS Define the domain and range of the function.

Domain:

Range:

Answer 1

Answer:

Domain: (-∞, ∞)

Range: (-∞, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain are the x-values included in the function (the horizontal axis).

The range are the y-values included in the function (the vertical axis).

The two arrows on the ends of the line (pointing upwards and downwards respectively) indicate that the function goes in those direction for infinity. Therefore, if there are an infinite amount of y-values, the range is (-∞, ∞).

While the slope is quite steep, there is still a slope and slowly "expands" the line on the horizontal axis. Because there is no limit to the y-values, the domain will also expand infinitely. Therefore, the domain is also (-∞, ∞).

Answer 2

Answer:

Domain: All real numbers (interval notation: $(-$∞, ∞$)$

Range: All real numbers (interval notation: $(-$∞, ∞$)$.

Step-by-step explanation: The domain of a graph is all the x-values where the line touches or will eventually touch.

The range of a graph is like the domain, but it is all the y-values where the line touches or will touch.

In a linear function in the form y = mx + b or ax + by = c, the domain and range will always be "all real numbers" and the interval will always be (-∞,  ∞). This makes sense since a line always goes on forever (unless it's piecewise or an inequality.) So the line will eventually meet every single x and y value on the xy graph.
