Question

A large bottle of water is leaking. The amount of ounces left in the bottle is shown in the function
`O(s) = 72-3s` is the amount of ounces left, and s is the number of seconds that is the water is leaking out. What is a reasonable domain and range for this function?

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

D: [0, 24]

R: [0, 72]

Explanation:

The function only makes sense for non-negative values of time or water volume. The intercepts of the function are ...

y-intercept: 72

x-intercept: 72/3 = 24

so the reasonable domain is 0 ≤ s ≤ 24,

and the corresponding range is 0 ≤ O(x) ≤ 72.
