To complete the table, we need to identify the pattern in the total cost for Windy Kites based on the number of kites purchased.
From the given data:
- When 0 kites are purchased, the cost is $16.
- When 1 kite is purchased, the cost is $20.
From these two points:
- The cost increases by $4 when 1 additional kite is purchased.
Assuming a linear pattern where each additional kite costs a fixed amount, we can calculate the cost per kite:
Cost for 1 kite = Total cost for 1 kite - Total cost for 0 kites = $20 - $16 = $4
Now let's find the missing costs for 4, 7, and 10 kites purchased.
- For 4 kites:
- The increase in cost from 1 kite to 4 kites is for 3 additional kites.
- Cost for 4 kites = Total cost for 1 kite + (Cost per kite * Number of additional kites) = $20 + (4 * 3) = $20 + $12 = $32
- For 7 kites:
- The increase from 4 kites to 7 kites is for 3 additional kites.
- Cost for 7 kites = Total cost for 4 kites + (Cost per kite * Number of additional kites) = $32 + (4 * 3) = $32 + $12 = $44
- For 10 kites:
- The increase from 7 kites to 10 kites is for 3 additional kites.
- Cost for 10 kites = Total cost for 7 kites + (Cost per kite * Number of additional kites) = $44 + (4 * 3) = $44 + $12 = $56
Now we can fill in the table:
| Kites Purchased | Total Cost for Windy Kites | |-----------------|-----------------------------| | 0 | $16 | | 1 | $20 | | 4 | $32 | | 7 | $44 | | 10 | $56 |
