Jessica want to slowly decrease her daily caloric intake, which is currently 2500 calories per day. She plans to decrease her calorie intake by 40 calories every 2 days for the next 30 days. Determine a reasonable domain and range for this situation.

Answer :

Answer:

domain is (0, 30)

Range is (1900, 2500)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Jessica plans to decrease her calorie intake by 40 calories every 2 days for the next 30 days.

This means that the domain of this period is between 0 days to 30 days.

Thus, the domain is (0, 30)

Now,she plans decrease of 40 calories every 2 days. This amounts to an average of 20 calories a day.

Which means that in a month of 30 days, she would have decreased her daily calorie intake by; 20 × 30 = 600 calories.

Since she is currently on 2500 calories per day, it means that the new targeted daily intake is; 2500 - 600 = 1900 calories.

Thus, the range for this situation would be between 1900 calories and 2500 calories.

Range = (1900, 2500)
