Answer:
y = 3^(1 + x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that each time x increases by 1, y increases by a factor of 3.
Thus, the required equation has the form y = 3^x.
Check: If x = 0, do we get 3? No. Therefore we must modify the exponent:
y = 3^(1 + x)
Check: If x = 0, do we get 3? 3^(1 + 0) = 3 (correct)
If x = 2, do we get 27? 3(1 + 2) = 3^3 + 27 (correct)
Answer: 3x + 5 = 57.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the price of one video game is x. Jamie bought 3 video games so the expression will be:
= 3x
His sister talked him into buying two $1.50 candy bars and a $2.00 drink. The total of this is:
= 1.50 + 1.50 + 2.00
= $5.00
The total amount spent on both the video game and the snacks is $57.50. Equation will therefore be:
3x + 5 = 57.50
-1 * (-4) = 4; 3 * (-4) = -12; 6 * (-4) = -24; -3 * (-4) = 12
Answer:
92.40 is the answer for your question.
