Question

when renting out joes warehouse for an event, the cost per person is $18 and renting the tables cost exactly $40. The total cost of renting the warehouse is represented by the equation y=18x+40.Interpret the domain and range of the given scenario

Answer 1

Given:

The total cost of renting the warehouse is represented by the equation:

`y=18x+40`

The equation represents the equation of a line

So, both the domain and the range will be corresponding to the possible value of x

The number of persons (x) must be greater than 0, x will not be a negative

So, Domain = (0, ∞ )

and when x = 0, y = 40

So, the range = (40, ∞ )

So, the answer will be

Domain = (0, ∞ )

Range = (40, ∞ )
