Rick’s Rentals is a car rental company that uses the function f(x)=22+0.10x to determine the to
tal cost of a rental as a function of how many miles a person drives. Penny’s Pencils is another company that uses a similar function g(x)=22+0.10x to determine the total cost of an order of personalized pencils as a function of the number of pencils ordered. Determine the domain and range of the company whose function is continuous and justify your answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of miles driven is sometimes written as a mixed number, and thus is a continuous variable (whereas the number of pencils purchased is not continuous (it's a whole number).

The domain of the continuous function are [0, n), where n represents the number of miles driven and is rarely over about 500 miles per day; the range is [$22, r), where r is ($0.10/mile)(number of miles driven), or approximately $50.  If the renter drove 600 miles the upper end of the range would be $60.  And so on.
