In a bakery, the number of buns delivered is a function of the number of boxes packed. What is the domain of this function?

Your domain would include only positive integers, or zero. The value of the buns cannot be negative; in other words, you cannot have a negative number of buns. The same principle applies to boxes. However, you can have zero buns or zero boxes. Hope this helps.

Answer;

-The domain would include only positive integers, or zero.

Step-by-step explanation;

The domain of a function is the set of values on which that function is defined. A function given by a particular rule might have many possible domains. In this case the value of the buns cannot be negative, thus the domain can not be negative.
