Answer:
f(x) = 2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently the ordered pairs are ...
(x, f(x)) = (1, 3), (2, 5), (3, 7), (4, 9)
We note that as x increases by 1, the value of f(x) increases by 2. The difference between f(x) and 2x is 3-2·1 = 1, so we have ...
f(x) -2x = 1
f(x) = 2x +1 . . . . . . add 2x
Answer:
C = $2.40
n = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
For Noelle,
Equation that represents the monthly cost 'C',
C = 0.2n + 1.20
Here, n = number of checks written in a month
For Micah,
Monthly cost for writing checks 'C' = $1.20
Number of checks 'n' = 3
Since, Cost of writing checks ∝ Number of checks written
C' ∝ n
C' = kn
k =
Here, k = proportionality constant
For C' = 1.2 and n = 3
k =
k = 0.4
Equation will be,
C' = 0.4n
For any month C = C'
Therefore, 0.2n + 1.20 = 0.4n
0.4n - 0.2n = 1.20
0.2n = 1.20
n = 6
Number of checks written by Noelle and Micah = 6
For n = 6,
C = 0.2(6) + 1.20
C = $2.40
Cost of writing checks = $2.40
