ANSWER

{0, 60, 120, 180...} Option C

Step-by-step explanation

The function that describes the car's distance is:

f(x) = 60x

x represents the amount of hours traveled.

We know that the number of hours traveled are integers, that is 1, 2, 3...

This means that for any value of x (from the domain), the value of the function (from the range) will be an integral multiple of 60.

That is the function f(x) can only have values that are multiples of 60, that is, 0, 60, 120, 180....

Therefore, the range of the function is:

{0, 60, 120, 180...}

Option C
