For the situation described, where the function \( f(t) = 8(2)^t \) models the number of fruit flies after \( t \) days, the appropriate domain would reflect the time range being monitored, which is from the start of the observation (day 0) to the end of the observation (day 6).
Thus, the most appropriate domain is:
**0 ≤ t ≤ 6**
This indicates that \( t \) can take any value from 0 to 6, inclusive.
Thus, the most appropriate domain is:
**0 ≤ t ≤ 6**
This indicates that \( t \) can take any value from 0 to 6, inclusive.
