Valerie Cross · Answer 1

In order for Andrea to make profit, the value of the C in the given function must not be 0 or less than zero. So, let's find the value of x when C is zero.

C = 0 = 10x - 50

x = 5

Hence, the number of candles sold represented by x must be more than 5 (< 5). Therefore, the domain is (5,+∞). When the value of x is more than 5, the C or the range would be greater than 0. Thus, the range is (0,+∞).
