The appropriate domain for the situation described, where \( f(t) = 8(2)^t \) models the number of fruit flies after \( t \) days and Byron monitors this over the first 6 days, would be the range of days that are relevant to the observation.
Since Byron is monitoring the number of fruit flies over the first 6 days, the time \( t \) starts at 0 and goes up to 6, inclusive.
Therefore, the appropriate domain is:
**0 ≤ t ≤ 6**
