an image shows a graph with the points (0, 3.5) and (7, 0).

Question

The graph below represents the total amount of chips in the bag in oz., y, over time, x, in minutes.
What would be a reasonable domain (input) for this scenario?

Answer 1

A reasonable domain for this scenario would be x ≥ 0, as time (x-axis) cannot be negative in this context.

Answer 2

thats not an option, the options are:
A: [0, 7]
B: [0, 8]
C: [0, 3.5]

Answer 3

The correct answer is A: [0, 7].

This is because the graph shows data points at (0, 3.5) and (7, 0), indicating that the bag contained 3.5 oz of chips at the beginning (time = 0) and no chips after 7 minutes. Therefore, the domain for this scenario would be all non-negative values up to and including 7 minutes.
