Annabel wants to make banana bread for the bake sale. She went to the market to buy bananas, and she noticed fruit flies after she returned home with her produce. The number of fruit flies grows at an exponential rate modeled by the equation f(t)=8(2)t

Question

, where f is the number of fruit flies after t days. Define an appropriate domain for the problem if Annabel bakes the banana bread 5 days after returning from the market.(1 point)
Responses

0≤t≤5
0 less than or equal to t less than or equal to 5

0≤f≤5
0 less than or equal to f less than or equal to 5

0≤t≤256
0 less than or equal to t less than or equal to 256

0≤f≤256

Answer 1

In this scenario, Annabel observes the growth of fruit flies starting from the day she returns from the market until she bakes the banana bread, which is 5 days later. The appropriate domain for the time variable \( t \) is from the start (day 0, when she returns with the bananas) to day 5 (the day she bakes the banana bread).

Thus, the correct response for the domain of \( t \) is:

0 ≤ t ≤ 5 or 0 less than or equal to t less than or equal to 5.
