An airline uses the function below to calculate the profits earned from a 2,124-mile flight of a commercial jet that has a maximum seating capacity of 160 passengers. in the function, x represents the number of passengers on board the plane. p(x) = $355x - $33,984 what is the domain of p(x)?

The domain of P(x) will be : or [0, 160]

Explanation

Given function :  P(x) = $355x - $33,984

Domain means the set of possible values of x , for which the function P(x) can be defined.

Here, x represents the number of passengers on board the plane. As the number of passengers can't be in negative, so the minimum value of x will be 0.

Given that, the plane has a maximum seating capacity of 160 passengers. It means the maximum value of x is 160.

So, the domain of P(x) will be : or [0, 160]

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
