Given that the domain is all real numbers, what is the limit of the range for the function ƒ(x) = 42x - 100?

This function has a straight line graph and thus has no limit on the range.

Answer:

R = (-∞,∞)

Explanation:

The given function is


f(x)=42x-100

As you can notice, it's a linear function, and it's written in slope-intercept form. So, from this expression we can deduct that the slope is 42 and the y-intercept is at -100. We deduct this information, because of the form


f(x)=mx+b

Where
m is the slope and
b is the y-intercept, which in this case are


m=42 and
b=-100.

An important characteristic of linear function is that they domain and range sets are always all real numbers, the function is not restricted.

Therefore, the range of the given function is

R = (-∞,∞)
