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)

Four points showing a decrease in money remaining with an increase in number of comic books are plotted on a coordinate plane. The y-axis is labeled money remaining. The x-axis is labeled number of comic books.

Answer 1

To create a table showing how much money Eric has left after each comic book purchase, we start with his initial amount of $27.00 and subtract the cost of each comic book ($4.00).

Here's the table:

| Number of Comic Books | Money Remaining | |-----------------------|-----------------| | 0 | $27.00 | | 1 | $23.00 | | 2 | $19.00 | | 3 | $15.00 | | 4 | $11.00 | | 5 | $7.00 | | 6 | $3.00 | | 7 | -$1.00 |

Now, we can plot this data on a graph where:

• The x-axis represents the number of comic books purchased (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).
• The y-axis represents the money remaining after each purchase.

From the description of the graphs, the first response accurately describes the situation where there are four points showing a decrease in money remaining with an increase in the number of comic books plotted on a coordinate plane.

Correct response: Four points showing a decrease in money remaining with an increase in number of comic books are plotted on a coordinate plane. The y-axis is labeled money remaining. The x-axis is labeled number of comic books.
