Question

A coordinate plane shows both the axes ranging from negative 12 to 12 in increments of 1. A closed point and an arrow are drawn on the graph. A rightward, decreasing, arrow is drawn from a closed point at left parenthesis negative 7 comma 5 right parenthesis. The arrowhead ends at left parenthesis 6 comma negative 6 right parenthesis.

Answer 1

To describe the domain of the linear function represented by the arrow on the coordinate plane, we need to identify the x-values where the function is defined based on the starting point and the direction of the arrow.

The closed point is at (-7, 5) and it has an arrow pointing right towards (6, -6). This suggests that the function starts at x = -7 and extends to x = 6. However, since the arrow is open and points to the right from -7, it indicates that the function is defined for all x-values greater than or equal to -7.

Given this reasoning, the correct option that describes the domain of the linear function is:

Option #1: x ≥ -7.
