Answers:

Domain: $0 \le x \le 12$

Range: $0 \le y \le 10$

===============================================

Explanation:

The domain is the set of all possible x inputs. The x axis is along the horizontal, so x refers to the number of minutes. The smallest x can get is x = 0 and the largest is x = 12. To describe everything in between those endpoints, including both endpoints, we write $0 \le x \le 12$

The range is the set of all possible y outputs. The y axis is vertical so y refers to the distance from home. The smallest distance is y = 0 and the largest distance is y = 10. So we say the range is $0 \le y \le 10$ to describe everything in between 0 and 10, including those endpoints.

Side note: 12 minutes = 12/60 = 0.2 hours. You travel 10 miles in 0.2 hours, so the speed is distance/time = 10/0.2 = 50 mph.
