The domain is the set of all whole numbers greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of nail polishes that Taylor purchases .

Therefore  the amount spent by Taylor on nail polishes will be f(x) = 3.95\times x

since Taylor has only 30 dollars to spend on nail polishes.

f(x) \leq  30 dollars

therefore 3.95\times x \leq 30

x \leq 7.594

since x is an whole number x = 7

Therefore the domain is the set of all whole numbers greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 7.
