A function is created to represent the cost per person to attend the school dance. What restrictions would be made to the domain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@PARAMOREandFLYLEAF The domain would only include integers. The domain would only include positive integers. The domain would only include positive numbers. The domain would include all real numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im thinking its b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@surd

@k142

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Well, are you ever going to pay people to come to the dance?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yha

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I doubt it... which is where the positive part comes in. But, what about integers? What if the cost was $5.50. Is that an integer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Exactly. So, do you still think b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its option a

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

@surd Same problem. That does not allow for cents.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oohhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no bc they cant have integers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its preety awkward questionn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it cant be negative bc u cant share money

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup thats y i told psoitiveee

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Not really. If you realize it must be positive as a unit of money and must allow for cents, well, there is only one answer.

myininaya (myininaya):

isn't the cost the range? and the amount of the people attended the domain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean like split or half it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To which graph does the point (−1, 3) belong?

myininaya (myininaya):

the cost can include decimals (cents or whatever) the amount of people can't include decimal parts

myininaya (myininaya):

Basically I'm saying the cost is suppose to be the range because it does say the function represents the cost per person not the person per cost

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Hmmm... cost per person. True. It depends on which access is the person.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

axis

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

If the abscissa is people, then yah, it would be integers. Then the ordinate would be the cost per person.
