The number type that is more appropriate for the domain of p(w) is (Choice B) Real numbers.
To determine which number type is more appropriate for the domain of p(w), we need to consider the possible values that w can take.
In this scenario, Aiden sells any amount of cumin seeds from 1 kilogram to 1000 kilograms. Since weights can be measured in decimals (e.g., 1.5 kilograms), the domain of w includes non-integer values.
Therefore, the more appropriate number type for the domain of p(w) would be real numbers, as it includes both integers and decimals. Hence, the correct answer is (Choice B) Real numbers.
