Gilbert has 50 drywall screws. He is purchasing more screws. He can purchase up to 6 boxes of screws. Each box of screws contains 200 screws. He can't purchase partial boxes. The function that models the number screws Gilbert has is f(b)=200b+50 , where b is the number of boxes he purchases.

What is the practical domain of the function?

Answer: all integers from 1 to 6 inclusive

Step-by-step explanation: it says that "He can't purchase partial boxes" so it cant be all real numbers from 1 to 6 inclusive, and it's not all real numbers because he is limited to only 6 boxes. and it's just not {250,450,650,850,1050,1300}. so that leaves all integers from 1 to 6 inclusive.
