The function f(x) = –12x + 144,000 is used to model the number of granola bars in stock depending on the number of boxes, x, one machine packages if the machine starts with 144,000 granola bars. The mathematical range for the function is the set of real numbers.
Answer
A
The reasonable range is limited to the whole numbers when 0 ≤ y ≤ 12,000.
B
The reasonable range is limited to the rational numbers when 0 ≤ y ≤ 12,000.
C
The reasonable range is limited to the whole numbers when 0 ≤ y ≤ 144,000.
D
The reasonable range is limited to the rational numbers when 0 ≤ y ≤ 144,000.
