Correct question is;

Tanya walked for 17 minutes from her home to a friend that lives 1.5 kilometers away. D(t) models Tanyas remaining distance to walk in kilometers, t minutes since she left home. What number type is more appropriate for the domain of d?

Answer:

0 ≤ t ≤ 17 ; (0, 17)

Explanation:

We are told that she has walked for 17 minutes from her home to a friend that lives 1.5 kilometers away.

Now, we want to find the domain of numbers that shows her remaining distance.

Since she spent 17 minutes, then it means in modeling remaining distance it could be from 0 to 17 minutes as the case may be. Thus, the domain can be written as;

0 ≤ t ≤ 17 ; (0, 17)
