<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

A box of 50 stickers would cost $13

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>1- getting the equation representing the price:</u>

We have two variables; the number of stickers and the price of the box

We can note that the price is the dependent variable (y) while the number of stickers is the independent one (x)

<u>We are given that:</u>

A box of 15 stickers cost $6..........> first point is (15,6)

A box of 25 stickers cost $8 ........> second point is (25,8)

The general equation of the linear line is:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

<u>i. getting the slope:</u>

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{8-6}{25-15}=0.2

The equation now became: y = 0.2x + c

<u>ii. getting the y-intercept:</u>

To get the y-intercept, use any of the given points and substitute in the equation we got in part i. I will use the point (15,6)

y = 0.2x + c

6 = 0.2(15) + c

c = 6 - 0.2(15) = 3

<u>The final equation is:</u>

y = 0.2x + 3

where y is the price of the box and x is the number of stickers it contains

<u>2- getting the price of a box with 50 stickers:</u>

To get the price of a box of 50 stickers, simply substitute with x = 50 in the equation we got from part 1

<u>This is done as follows:</u>

y = 0.2(50) + 3 = 13

Therefore, a box of 50 stickers will cost $13

Hope this helps :)

Braxton loves downloading new music he originally had 41 songs but plans to purchase 4 new songs each week. he wants to know how
ycow [4]

Answer:

a_110=41+(110-1)4

Step-by-step explanation:

He already has songs = 41

Since we are given that he purchase four songs every week .

So, in first week he purchase songs = 4

Initially he already has 41 songs

So, total songs after 1 week = 41+(4\times1)=45

After 2 weeks he will have songs = 41+(4\times 2)=49

This forms an arithmetic sequence  : 41,45,49......

Formula of nth term in A.P. : a_n=a+(n-1)d

a = first term = 41

d = common difference = 45-41=49-45=4

Since we are required to find the new songs after110 weeks

So, n =110

Substituting values :

a_110=41+(110-1)4

Thus Option A is correct.
