Answer:


0 \leq p < 6

Explanation:

Given


t = 6.95p + 29.95


Amount = 70

Required

Determine the domain

First, we need to solve for p

Substitute 70 for t in
t = 6.95p + 29.95


70 = 6.95p + 29.95

Collect Like Terms


6.95p = 70 - 29.95


6.95p = 40.05

Solve for p


p = 40.05/6.95


p = 5.76

This implies that Larry can not invite up to 6 people.

Hence, the domain can be represented as:
0 \leq p < 6
