Eric has $27.00 and wants to buy comic books. If each comic book costs $4.00, create a table and graph the arithmetic sequence to display how much money Eric has left after each comic book purchase. Which graph is an accurate representation of the problem?(1 point)

Answer 1

To create a table to display how much money Eric has left after each comic book purchase, we can subtract $4.00 from $27.00 repeatedly until the amount of money left is zero or less.

Table:

| Comic Book Purchase | Amount of Money Left |

|-------------------------|-------------------------|

| 0 | $27.00 |

| 1 | $23.00 |

| 2 | $19.00 |

| 3 | $15.00 |

| 4 | $11.00 |

| 5 | $7.00 |

| 6 | $3.00 |

| 7 | $0.00 |

Graph:

To represent this arithmetic sequence on a graph, we can plot the number of comic book purchases on the x-axis and the amount of money left on the y-axis.

The points on the graph are:
(0, $27.00), (1, $23.00), (2, $19.00), (3, $15.00), (4, $11.00), (5, $7.00), (6, $3.00), (7, $0.00)

The accurate graph representation of the problem is a decreasing linear graph that starts at $27.00 and ends at $0.00.

Graph:
```

| //|

+--|---+------------>
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
```
