Answer 2

The table shows the number of badges earned, based on the number of boxes of cards sold.

Let b(x) represents the number of badges earned and x represents the number of boxes of cards sold.

Given that:

`b(20) = 3`

here, x = 20 number of boxes of cards sold

and

b(20) represents the number of badges earned or we can say that the number of badges earned is 3.

Therefore, b(20) = 3 mean in terms of the problem is that you sell 20 boxes you will get 3 badges
