You define a function f(x) which gives the cost of buying x packages of cookies. You are asked for the domain of the function. That is, what values can x take on? x is the number of packages bought.
It makes no sense to buy a negative number of packages. It also makes no sense to buy 1/2 a package or 3/4 of a package as the store won’t sell you a fraction of a package. Try going to the store and buying half a package of oreo cookies. I doubt you’ll get very far :)
So it makes sense to buy 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... boxes of cookies. These are whole numbers. So the domain is the set of whole numbers. You could also write the domain like this {0, 1, 2, 3, ...} making sure to use the curly brackets as those denote a set.

The answer:
<span>according to the question the length is its width, that means
w=l
</span><span>She wants to enlarge the picture to have an area of 192 in2,
that means Area = </span>wxl = 192 in²
so, since w=l, we can write that Area = wxl =w²=l²= 192 in², this implies:
w=sqrt (192) = 13.85 in
finally the width w = 13.85, and the length l= 13.85 because w=l
Answer:
(D) $20,240
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the value of her car decreases by 8% every year, in one year it will be 92% of its original price ($22,000). 0.92 * 22,000 is 20,240. Therefore, the answer is D.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
I reversed it for easy viewing:
(x+7)/3x = 2/3
<=> (x + 7).3 = 2.(3x)
<=> 3x + 21 = 6x
<=> 21 = 6x - 3x
<=> 3x = 21
<=> x = 7
