Complete the statements below:

Sample A changes by a common
Sample B changes by a common
When x = 4, both y values will be

Answer 1

To analyze the two samples, we need to determine how Y changes in relation to X in each sample.

1. Sample A changes by a common: factor of 2. Looking at the Y values:

   • When X = 0, Y = 2
   • When X = 1, Y = 4 (change of 2)
   • When X = 2, Y = 8 (change of 4)
   • When X = 3, Y = 16 (change of 8)

   The pattern shows that as X increases by 1, the Y values are influenced by the previous Y value, effectively multiplying.

   However, the exact relation can be seen: \(Y \text{(Sample A)} = 2^X\).

2. Sample B changes by a common: factor of 6. Looking at the Y values:

   • When X = 0, Y = 8
   • When X = 1, Y = 14 (change of 6)
   • When X = 2, Y = 20 (change of 6)
   • When X = 3, Y = 26 (change of 6)

   The Y values increase by a constant amount of 6 as X increases by 1.

   Thus, it shows a linear relationship: \(Y \text{(Sample B)} = 6X + 8\).

3. When x = 4, both y values will be:

   • For Sample A: \[ Y = 2^X \implies Y = 2^4 = 16 \]
   • For Sample B: \[ Y = 6X + 8 \implies Y = 6(4) + 8 = 24 + 8 = 32 \]

So, the complete statements are:

• Sample A changes by a common factor of 2 (exponential).
• Sample B changes by a common factor of 6 (linear).
• When X = 4, both Y values will be 16 (Sample A) and 32 (Sample B).
