Step-by-step explanation:

Starting Value: 24

Rate of change: -4

The equation is 24 minus t times -4, because Blake is eating 4 chocolates every night

C = 24 - 4t

Number of Days after Blake's B-day         Number of chocolates remaining

                           0                                               C = 24 - 4(0) = 24

                           1                                                C = 24 - 4(1) = 20

                           2                                               C = 24 - 4(2) = 16

                           3                                               C = 24 - 4(3) = 12

The equation is C = 24 - 4(t), where t represents the number of days after Blake's birthday.
