Explain, using the theorems, why the function is continuous at every number in its domain. 5 M(x) = 1 + O M(x) is a polynomial, so it is continuous at every number in its domain. O M(x) is a rational function, so it is continuous at every number in its domain. O M(x) is a composition of functions that are continuous, so it is continuous at every number in O M(x) is not continuous at every number in its domain. O none of these State the domain. (Enter your answer using interval notation.)
