Omari drives a car that gets 18 miles per gallon of gasoline. The car's gasoline tank holds 15 gallons. The distance Omari drives before refueling is a function of the number of gallons of gasoline in the tank. Identify a reasonable domain for this situation.

Explanation:

A reasonable domain for this situation would be the set of non-negative integers less than or equal to 15, since the number of gallons of gasoline in the tank cannot be negative and cannot exceed the tank's capacity of 15 gallons. Therefore, the domain would be {0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 15}.
