An employee is paid $50 per week plus $20 for every hour worked. They are not allowed to work overtime or over 40 hours per week. Their weekly income can be modeled by the equation y=20x+50

Answer 1

The employee is only allowed to work a maximum of 40 hours per week, and since they cannot work negative hours, the number of hours worked, \( x \), must be between 0 and 40, inclusive.

Therefore, the domain of the function in interval notation is:

\[ [0, 40] \]
