FIRST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!!
The domain of a linear function is all real numbers x > 1. The equation y = – 19x – 56 defines the function. Which of the following is the range of the function?

Respuesta :

Given:

The equation of function is

[tex]y=-19x-56[/tex]

The domain of a linear function is all real numbers x > 1.

To find:

The range of the function.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]y=-19x-56[/tex]

Since, the domain of a linear function is all real numbers x > 1, it means the value of x can be any real number greater than 1.

Here, coefficient of x is -19 which is negative number. It means the value of y is decreasing as x increasing.

So, [tex]y\to -\infty[/tex] as [tex]x\to \infty[/tex].

At x=1,

[tex]y=-19(1)-56[/tex]

[tex]y=-19-56[/tex]

[tex]y=-75[/tex]

It means, for x>1, y<-75.

Therefore, the range of a linear function is all real numbers y < -75.
