The cost (in dollars) of buying x pounds of a party product is given by the function

C(x) = 10x + 300.

Suppose, for budgetary reasons; you can't spend more than $2100 on this product. You can spend less, but you have to buy at least 50 pounds.

In this situation, what is the domain of this function?

Answer:

180

Explanation:

Given the cost (in dollars) of buying x pounds of a party product is given by the function

C(x) = 10x + 300.

Suppose, for budgetary reasons; you can't spend more than $2100 on this product. You can spend less, but you have to buy at least 50 pounds.

To get the domain of the function, substitute C(x) =2100 and find x

2100 = 10x + 300

10x = 2100 - 300

10x = 1800

x = 1800/10

x = 180

Hence the domain of the function is 180
