An equation without exponents and two variables, is typically a straight line. All the points on the line with integer coordinates are solutions of the equation. Since x and y have to be positive as well, there aren't that many solutions.

Let's see where the line crosses the x-axis, it is where y=0:

x/0.5 + 0 = 18, so x=9 at the intercept. y=0 there, so this is a point on the line, but not a solution to the question (y was supposed to be positive).

Possible values for x are thus limited to 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7. You can try them all (ie., solve the equation with them) and see for which x values the y is also positive and integer.

You will find that x=4, y=2 is the only pair that satisfies these conditions.

State the domain and range of the following function:
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Domain = \{-3,0,2,1,6,3\}

Range = \{4,6,-2,-3,-7,2\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\{(- 3,4), (0,6), (2, - 2), (1, - 3), (6, - 7), (3, 2)\}

Required

The domain and range

A function is represented as:

Function = \{(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),....(x_n,y_n)\}

Where

x \to domain

y \to range

So, we have:

Domain = \{-3,0,2,1,6,3\}

Range = \{4,6,-2,-3,-7,2\}
