Question

You have 8 cups of flour. It takes 1 cup of flour to make 24 cookies. The function c(f) = 24f represents the number of cookies, c, that can be made with f cups of flour. What domain and range are reasonable for the function? What is the graph of the function?

Answer 1

You have 8 cups of flour it takes 1 cup of flour to make 24 cookies the function c(f)=24f

c represents the number of cookies

f represents the cups of flour

You have 8 cups of flour, we can use only 0 to 8 cups of flour.

so domain f is 0 to 8 cups [0,8]

Now we find the range

1 cup of flour to make 24 cookies

So 8 cups of flour = 24* 8 = 192 cookies

using 8 cups you can make 192 cookies

So number of cookies is from 0 to 192

Range is [0,192]
