Answer:

B) All the positive integers

Explanation:

The domain of any function is the set of inputs, or x-values. In this situation, we are told that x represents the number of cars sold.

The kinds of numbers we would use to represent the number of cars sold are positive integers. We cannot sell partial numbers of cars; therefore we cannot use rational numbers. This limits us to integers.

Additionally, we cannot sell a negative number of cars. This eliminates negative numbers, leaving us with the positive integers.
