Question

Livia eats a chicken drumstick with 11 grams of protein. She also eats x cheese sticks, each with 7 grams of protein. The table shows y , the total number of grams of protein that Livia will consume if she eats x cheese sticks.

What is the range of the function?
A. all real numbers
B. all real numbers greater than or equal to 0
C. all real numbers greater than or equal to 11
D. all integers greater than or equal to 11

Answer 1

The correct option is: all real numbers greater than or equal to 11

Explanation:

We have given:

Livia eats a chicken drumstick with 11 grams of protein. She also eats x cheese sticks, each with 7 grams of protein

If y shows total number of grams of protein then we can write an equation like this:

y=11+7x

where x is a real number greater than equal to zero.

x>=0;

7x ≥ 0

11 + 7x ≥ 11

y ≥ 11

Therefore the correct option is C...
