ANSWER

C [0,9]

EXPLANATION

The number of bottled water on the shelf is modeled by the function

[tex]4x + y = 36[/tex]

We make y the subject to obtain;

[tex]y = 36 - 4x[/tex]

When no water is sold, then x=0.

When all the bottles are sold, then

[tex]4x - 36 = 0[/tex]

[tex]4x = 36[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{36}{4} = 9[/tex]

Therefore the store cannot sell more than 9 bottles.

The domain is [0,9]
