Question 1103525: the linear function y=1.25x represent the cost y ( in dollars) of x bottles of orange juice. each customer can buy a max of 5 bottles
What is the domain of the function??

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the function is y = 1.25x

each customer can buy a max of 5 bottles, therefore the value of x can go from 0 to 5.

the domain is therefore x is an integer from 0 to 5.

when x = 0, the cost is 0.

when x = 5, the cost is 6.25.

the range of the function is therefore y = the set {1.25, 2.50, 3.75, 5.00, 6.25}

no other values can be in the range because the domain is only integers and integers generate those values only.
