Too easy function

Algebra Level pending

Let a power function p ( x ) p(x) be represented as y = x n y=x^{n} , and a constant function c ( x ) c(x) be represented as y = m x + b y=mx + b . Now for certain value of ( n , m , b ) (n,m,b) ; p ( x ) = c ( x ) p(x)=c(x) ,for every x 'x' in the interval < x < -\infty < x < \infty .Then find n + m + b n+m+b


The answer is 1.

Shouldn't the solution be 2, since n=1, m=1 and b=0?

I have changed Linear function to constant function emphasising that m=0 , @Andrew Ellinor please credit the points to gentleman since his argument is right.
