Question

Complete the table below with the number of books, y, that Tim has read after 2, 6, and 10 weeks. You can solve on paper and then enter your answer on Zearn.
y=4+6x

Weeks (x) Books (y)
2
6
10

Answer 1

To complete the table using the equation \( y = 4 + 6x \), we need to substitute the given values of \( x \) (the number of weeks) into the equation to find \( y \) (the number of books Tim has read).

1. For \( x = 2 \):
\[
y = 4 + 6(2) = 4 + 12 = 16
\]

2. For \( x = 6 \):
\[
y = 4 + 6(6) = 4 + 36 = 40
\]

3. For \( x = 10 \):
\[
y = 4 + 6(10) = 4 + 60 = 64
\]

Now, we can complete the table:

| Weeks (x) | Books (y) |
|-----------|-----------|
| 2 | 16 |
| 6 | 40 |
| 10 | 64 |
