i will become a fan!

hint . the first function is exponential, the second is linear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since Roger is constantly adding one more and he already starts with 40, we know it will be y=x+40 Where 40 is the constant (he starts with this many) x is the rate at which he adds cars (he adds one so its 1x, but thats the same as x)
