A bucket has 16 inches of water in it but there is a hole in the bottom. Use interval notation to write the domain and range of

the function H(x) = 16 - 1.25x, where x is the time the water has been leaking for (in minutes) and is the height of the water (in inches). *

Answer: range:  {0in, 16in}

               domain {0min, 12.8 min}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a function:

f(x) = y.

The range is the set of possible values of y and the domain is the set of all the possible values of x.

In this case, our function is:

H(x) = 16 - 1.25*x

which is a linear equation, and we know that the linear equations are defined (for range and domain) in the set of all the real numbers, but this is a physical situation, so we must see at the real problem.

The bucket can not have more water than the initial amount, 16 inches, so this is the maximum in the range.

The minimum height of water that we can find in the bucket is 0 inches (so the bucket is empty) then this is the minimum of the range.

Then we can write the range as:

R: 0in ≤ y ≤ 16in. = {0in, 16in}

Now we can find the extremes of the domain by using the extremes of the range:

y = 16 = 16 - 1.25*x

       0 = -1.25*x

then we have x = 0min, this will be the minimum of the domain.

Now using the minimum of the range y = 0 we have:

y  = 0 = 16 - 1.25*x

      1.25*x = 16

            x  = 16/1.25 = 12.8 mins

This is the maximum time in the domain (because after this time, there is no water in the bucket)

Then the domain is:

D: 0min ≤ x ≤ 12.8 min

Juan ordered 20 pizzas for a party. 45% of the pizzas have 8 slices each. The remaining 55% of the pizzas have 12 slices each. C
Mama L [17]

Total number of pizzas Juan ordered 20

Since, 45\% of pizzas have 8 slices.

Therefore, number of pizzas with 8 slices are: 45\%\times(20)

                                                                                          =\frac{45}{100} \times(20)

                                                                                          =\frac{45}{10} \times(2)

                                                                                          =\frac{90}{10}

                                                                                          =9 pizzas


Also, since, 55\% of pizzas have 12 slices.

Therefore, number of pizzas with 12 slices are: 55\%\times(20)

                                                                                          =\frac{55}{100} \times(20)

                                                                                          =\frac{55}{10} \times(2)

                                                                                          =\frac{110}{10}

                                                                                          =11 pizzas


Now, there are 9 pizzas with 8 slices and 11 pizzas with 12 slices.

Therefore, total number of slices of pizza are: =(9)(8)+(11)(12)

                                                                            =72+132

                                                                            =204 slices
