a. Explain in words what is done to the input value (20) to produce the output value (y).
b. Write the rule you described in part (a) with algebraic symbols.

(a) Rule: Multiply the input (x) by 2 and add 5 to the result of the product

(b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Solving (a): The rule of the table in words

First, we calculate the slope (m)

Using:

So, we have:

The equation is calculated using:

Using:

We have:

Make y the subject

Hence, the rule is:

Multiply the input (x) by 2 and add 5 to the result of the product

(b): The rule, in algebra

As solved in (a), the rule is:

i believe the answer to be 48
