Exercise 10 Page 128

Do we count or do we measure the hats?

Discrete

Practice makes perfect

Before we look at the given table, let's recall the definitions of discrete and continuous domains.

  • Discrete Domain: A set of input values that consist of only certain numbers in an interval.
  • Continuous Domain: A set of input values that consist of all possible numbers in an interval.

In the given situation, the input is a number of hats. It is only possible to have integers for a number of hats, as we cannot buy part of a hat. Therefore, the domain is discrete.
