the domain is all Reals unless this is a 'real-world' application as when, for example, x represents the number of widgets manufactured at $12 each, and $50 is the startup cost for the production line, in which case x>0. And there might also be some upper limit, and furthermore x would be restricted to integers.  Without such a practical context, in Math this domain is not restricted in any way.
