Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information from the problem, if Emily continues to pick 3 strawberries per second while Sophia eats 5 strawberries per second, then the amount of strawberries will decrease at a rate of 2 strawberries per second. Therefore, we can find the answer by subtracting 2 from 20 until we get to 8. Since we subtract 2 six times, the answer is 6. Hope this makes sense!

Which function describes this table of values?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2}x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table of function given, you would observe that if you subtract 2 from half of the x-variable values, you'd get the y-variable values.

For example, half of -8 = -4. If you add 2 to -4, you'd get: -4 + 2 = -2. Same applies to other x-values on the table.

Thus, an expression for the function represented by the table values can be written as,

y = \frac{1}{2}x +2

PLEASE HELP! Identify the rule for the function table.
fgiga [73]
Hello!

You have to find what the rule is

12/24 = 0.5
6/12 = 0.5
 -6/-12= 0.5

They multiply x by 0.5

the rule is multiply x by 0.5 or y = 0.5x

Hope this helps!
