A:
Jason made a payment of $1800 to his bank to clear his debts. He then deposited $1000 in his checking account at an annual interest rate of 6% compounded monthly. Jason made the following graph to relate the amount accumulated in his checking account in x number of years.Here initial amount is 1000. the amount increases every year because the interest rate is 6% compounded monthlyFrom the graph we can see that the accumulated amount (y) increases as the number of years 'x' increases.The number of years cannot be negative so we ignore negative values for x Number of years starts at 0 and goes to infinitySo domain is 0 to infinity.
