Answer: Sort a list of couples married in his county into a random order, then ask the first 30 couples on the list.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Part 1) The rate of change is
Part 2) The initial value is 68
Part 3) The function rule to the linear model is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

where
m is the slope or unit rate
b is the y-intercept or initial value
step 1
Find the slope
take two points from the table
(0,68) and (15,85)
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute the values
In a linear function , the slope is the same that the rate of change
therefore
The rate of change is
step 2
Find the y-intercept
we know that
The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
Looking at the table
For x=0, y=68
therefore
The y-intercept is
The y-intercept is also called the initial value
therefore
The initial value is 68
step 3
Determine the function rule to the linear model

we have
substitute

4 4
x=6.75 or x=7
= 9n + 63
generate the first few terms using the recursive equation
f(1) = 72
f(2) = 72 + 9 = 81
f(3) = 81 + 9 = 90
f(4) = 90 + 9 = 99
the sequence is 72, 81, 90, 99, .....
This is an arithmetic sequence whose n th term formula is
=
+ (n - 1 )d
where
is the first term and d the common difference
d = 99 - 90 = 90 - 81 = 81 - 72 = 9 and
= 72
= 72 + 9(n - 1) = 72 + 9n - 9 = 9n + 63 ← explicit formula
