Answer 1

Given that Grace works from 10 to 20 hours per week while attending college. She earns $9.00 per hour. Her roommate Frances also has a job. Her pay for t hours each week is given by the function f(t)= 10t, where 5 ≤ t ≤ 15.

Part A:

Given that Grace's time is rounded to the nearest quarter of an hour. The domain for Grace is given by {10, 10.25, 10.50, 10.75, - - -, 19.75, 20}.

The range for grace is given by {9(10), 9(10.25), 9(10.50), 9(10.75), - - -, 9(19.75), 9(20)} = {90, 92.25, 94.5, 96.75, - - -, 177.75, 180}

The domain for Frances is given by: 5 ≤ t ≤ 15.

The range for Frances is given by: 10(5) ≤ f(t) ≤ 10(15) = 50 ≤ f(t) ≤ 150.



Part B:

Grace earns $9 per hour and $80 to $180 per week while Frances earns $10 per hour and $50 to $150 per week.
