Question

There are 6 quarters in a jar. Jill adds 2 quarters to the jar every day. Which linear equation represents the total amount of quarters in the jar after x days?
y = 6x + 2
y = 1/6x + 2
y = 2x + 6
6y = 2x

Answer 1

Y=2x + 6. ( because 2x is 2 quarters a day and you started with 6

Answer 2

Answer: $y = 2x + 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of days .

Given : There are 6 quarters in a jar.

Jill adds 2 quarters to the jar every day.

Then, the number of quarters added in x days = 2x

Now, the total number of quarters in the jar after x days = 2x+6

Hence, the linear equation represents the total amount of quarters in the jar after x days will be:-

$y = 2x + 6$
