<h3>
Answer: -5 < x < 2</h3>
Explanation:
The expression -2x means -2 times x. To undo this, we divide all parts of the inequality by -2. Dividing by a negative number will flip the inequality sign. We go from "less than" to "greater than"
-4 < -2x < 10
-4/(-2) > x > 10/(-2) .... inequality signs flip
2 > x > -5
-5 < x < 2
This unknown number x is between -5 and 2. It cannot equal -5. It cannot equal 2.

The answer to your question is the third option
Answer:
C) The domain represents the weeks that have passed since Samantha started counting the kittens. The domain is all whole numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you the independent variable w represents weeks that have passed. "Domain" refers to values the independent variable may have, so choices A or B make no sense here.
Time is measured continuously, and fractions of a week are possible. So, the domain could be <em>non-negative real numbers</em>. However, the answer choice D is "<em>all</em> real numbers", which includes negative numbers for which the function makes no sense.
The domain "all whole numbers" includes non-negative integers. It is reasonable to restrict the domain to non-negative integer numbers of weeks, so answer choice C is the best option.
