1) Jason: Shop A - 11 units; Shop B - 12 units. Sales increase at 17% per week. So, 11 + 12 = 23.
f(x) = 23(1.17)ˣ
2) Daniel: Element A temp - 44(1.13)ˣ ; Element B temp - 17(1.13)ˣ. How much temp of Element A be more than the temp of Element B.
f(x) = 44(1.13)ˣ - 17(1.13)ˣ = 27(1.13)ˣ
f(x) = 27(1.13)ˣ
3) Maggie: Tshirt price - $13. Charity donation - 270
f(x) = 13x - 270
4) Mr. Smith: Length of backyard - 30x + 29 ; Length of square patio - 13x + 6
Length not covered by the patio.
f(x) = (30x + 29) - (13x + 6) = 30x - 13x + 29 - 6 = 17x + 23
f(x) = 17x + 23
