First, you need to find the slope of this new line.
It is perpendicular to the given line, which means the slope of this line is the negative reciprocal of this given line, so we need to find out the slope of the equation 3y=6x+3 
divide each side by 3, you'll get y=2x+1, so we know the slope is 2, which is 2/1
the slope for the new line should be -1/2, the negative reciprocal of 1/2
Next, use point-slope format to write your equation. Your point is (2,4) and your slope is -1/2, so you have
(y-4)=-1/2(x-2)
If you want to simplify it: y-4=-1/2x+1 => y=(-1/2)x+5

When y=2 and y=5

1. 2y-1 and (3y-5+y or 4y-5)
when y=2 ; 2(2)-1 = 3 and 4(2)-5=3
when y=5 ; 2(5)-1 = 9 and 4(5)-5=15

----nonequivalent-----

2.5y+4 and (7y+4-2y or 5y+4)
so you don't have to place any value in because 5y+4 and 7y+4-2y are equal,
whatever you place any value in, it will be all the same then

-----equivalent------

and no need to find more

Answer:

the pattern step number of second step is added to number of balls used of first step to get number of balls used of second step

that is

1 + 2 ( number of balls added to pattern step number) = 3 (number of balls used)

in the same way

6 + 4 = 10 ( first blank )

5 + 10= 15 ( second blank)

15 + 7 = 22 ( third blank )

22 + 8 = 30 ( fourth blank)
