Question

After one week looking, Austin has 7 pet lizards he has found in his neighborhood. Each week, he is hoping to catch 3 more to add to his collection. How many lizards will he have after 8 weeks

Answer 1

Answer:

28 lizards

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to draw some sort of table for this equation.

1st week -> 7

2nd week -> 7 + 3 = 10

3rd week -> 10 + 3 = 13

4th week -> 13 + 3 = 16

5th week -> 16 + 3 = 19

6th week -> 19 + 3 = 22

7th week -> 22 + 3 = 25

8th week -> 25 + 3 = 28

Answer 2

Answer:

31 lizards

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that Austin does find 3 more lizards each week, then 3*8 weeks=24 lizards over 8 weeks. 24+the 7 lizards he already found=31 lizards in all. Hope this helps.
