Question

DO NOT SKIP!! Let’s see who’s smart enough to work out the problem if u get it correct I’ll mark u as BRAINLIEST SHOW THE WORK PLEASE
Tell me what error did she make

Answer 1

In year 10, the table says the population is 25,000

But if we plugged x = 10 into the equation Lucy got, then,

y = 600x + 25000

y = 600(10) + 25000

y = 6000 + 25000

y = 31000

Lucy's equation says that the population in year x = 10 should be y = 31000 instead of 25000. So this is one way to show that there is an error. The output from the equation isn't matching what the table shows.
