Question 1044866: My question is: find the domain of the function f(x)= (x^2-16)/7
I have tried to research how to figure this out, but I am unclear of the steps to find a solution of what the domain would be. Thank you so much!

Looking at the equation, you can see that ANY REAL NUMBER can be substituted for x to get a value for y. 

Therefore, domain is:
