Answer: It is linear. When a line is linear it just means it makes a straight line when you graph it. When it isn’t it will be curved or in some weird shape.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sally paints at a rate of 1/7th room / hour
Steve paints at a rate of 1/6th room / hour
If they both painted together, they would paint 1/7 + 1/6 = 13/42 room/hour
so to paint the whole room, it would take 1/(13/42) = 42/13 =
<u>
3.23 hours (3 significant figures)</u>
You can describe the domain by every possible x value in the function, since that function has a vertical intersection line which means the x value will never pass it on the negative side, the domain would be from -2 to all the postive numbers, X > -2 or (-2,∞).
For the range, simply it's all the possible y values. In that function it's impossible to go under 0 or negative value. That means the range would be Y>0 or (0,∞).
If you want to know if it's a function or not you could try the vertical line test, select any x value and draw straight line on it, if the line crosses 2 y points in the same x value it wont be a function, In your case each x value has it's own Y value.
So the answer is Domain x>-2; Range y>0; Yes, it is a function
