To see what equation gives us the sequence, let's first try to find a pattern.
6 to 12 can be: x + 6, 2x, 3x -6.
12 to 24 can be: x + 12, 2x, 3x -12.
24 to 48 can be: x + 24, 2x, 3x - 24.
Let's see if we can find a common pattern.
2x is a common pattern.
Your equation is :
n = 2x.
I hope this helps!

A study conducted to determine the relationship between the age, x, in years of a certain brand of motorcycle and its value, y,

kirza4 [7]

Based on the equation, y = -750·x + 8500, the estimated value of a

motorcycle that is 5 years old is <u>$4,750</u>.

<h3>How can the given equation help to estimate the value of the motorcycle?</h3>

The regression equation that models the data is; y = -750·x + 8500

Where;

y = The value of the brand of motorcycle in dollars

x = The age of the motorcycle

When the motorcycle is 5 years old, we have;

x = 5
