Answer:
2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute:
=(2)(x)+(2)(−6)+(2)(8)
=2x+−12+16
Combine Like Terms:
=2x+−12+16
=(2x)+(−12+16)
=2x+4
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9

12 and 1/8, I just simplified 2/16 to 1/8
The sequence can be represented by 
, where 
is a whole number(
and is an integer). By this, we should be able to plug in some whole number x and be able to get these values if they are in the sequence. To test this, let's set these numbers equal to and confirm that there is a whole number x which equals the values selected.
When trying 160 with our equation, we find that x doesn't equal a whole number, thus our answer is C, or 160. To confirm our answer, we can test 170 and 210 and confirm that they both give us a value for x which is a whole number.
