Danny's truck has a fuel tank with a capacity of 20 gallons of gas. The truck averages 17 miles per gallon of gas. The function m(g)=17g represents the number of miles that Danny's truck travels on g gallons of gas. What domain and range are reasonable for the function
The domain of the function m(g) represents the possible input values, which in this case are the number of gallons of gas, g. Since the truck's fuel tank has a capacity of 20 gallons, a reasonable domain for the function would be 0 ≤ g ≤ 20, meaning that the number of gallons of gas could range from 0 to 20.
The range of the function m(g) represents the possible output values, which in this case are the number of miles traveled, m. Since the truck averages 17 miles per gallon of gas, a reasonable range for the function would be 0 ≤ m ≤ 17*20 = 340, meaning that the number of miles traveled could range from 0 to 340.
