Answer:

answers are given with the explanation as follows:

Explanation:

(a)

A(1) = 2+.25(1) = $2.25

A(7) = 2+.25(7) = $3.75

A(30) = 2+.25(30) = $9.5

(b)

A(d) = 2+.25(d)

10.50 = 2+.25d

d = 8.5/.25

thus, d = 34

(c)

domain is the set of possible input values given to the function. according to the question given domain, d is the number of days so it cannot be a decimal number.

(d)

range is the possible set of output values that comes as a result of the function. the given answer is out of the range because it is showing that the number of days is 4.4 which is invalid domain.

Answer (with steps and explanation):

(part a):

A(1) = 2 + 0.25(1) = 2 + 0.25 = 2.25

A(7) = 2 + 0.25(7) = 2 + 1.75 = 3.75

A(30) = 2 + 0.25(30) = 2 + 7.5 = 9.5

(part b):

A(d) = 10.50

10.50 = 2 + 0.25d

10.50 - 2 = 0.25d

8.50 = 0.25d

8.50/0.25 = d,

34 = d, d = 34

(part c):

Because the child doesn't receive money half-way through the day. The .5 behind the 2 indicates that the child receives money half-way through the day which is incorrect. The domain can only be a whole number.

(part d):

Because it isn't possible to get a .10 when
d increases by .25 (quarters) plus a whole number (2). The number behind the decimal can only be 0, 25, 50, or 75.
