The +k part of the function takes the original function and translates it straight up k units. It's as simple as that. If your function is the line f(x) = 3x, then the function f(x) = 3x + 4 moves that first function up 4 units.
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
We can use any two points to determine the slope.
The line passes through;
(-3,1) and (-5,5).
The slope is given by

This implies that;


We can now find the equation using the formula;


Expand:


Answer:
$11.25
Step-by-step explanation: multiply .75 by 3 then multiply that answer by 5 and get your answer.
Answer: The 18th term is 295.
Step-by-step explanation: By using the arithmetic sequence formula:
a(n): nth term
a(1): first term
n: term position
d: common/constant difference
a(n) = a(1) + (n - 1)d
You should get an equation of a(n) = 6+(18 - 1)17. By following the order of operations, you should receive an 18th term of 295.
