The gray wolf population in central Idaho was monitored over several years for a project aimed at boosting the number of wolves. The number of wolves can be modeled by the function f(x) = 36x + 14 where x is the number of years since 1995. Identify its domain and range
\n" ); document.write( "The function's domain is x ≥
\n" ); document.write( "\"Domain\" specifies what values of 'x' can take for the equation to hold true.
\n" ); document.write( "In this case, x can't be negative because if x=-1, f(-1) = -22 -- well, you can't have -22 wolves. So, the domain, has to be values of x where f(x) remains positive:
\n" ); document.write( "x ≥ 0
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The function's range is f(x)≥
\n" ); document.write( "\"Range\" specifes the values of f(x) can be based on the above domain:
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) ≥ 14 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
