Question

There are 6 quarters in a jar. Jill adds 2 quarters to the jar every day.



Which linear equation represents the total amount of quarters in the jar after x days?

y=16x+2y=16x+2

6y = 2x

y = 6x + 2

y = 2x + 6

Answer 1

If there is already 6 quarters in the jay, then the y intercept is 6.
If you are adding two everyday, then it should be 2x.
The answer is choice 4.

Answer 2

thank you so much! been stuck in that for hours. Appreciate it

Answer 3

Np

Answer 4

y = 2x + 6 should be your answer since there is already 6 jars, but everyday (x) you add 2 more, so you get y=2x+6. The 6 is what was already there and the 2x is how much it will increase per day!

Answer 5

thank you!
