y = x + 2 is closest to what I believe is the solution.

If the club begins with 2 members, then +2 MUST appear in the formula.

If the club adds 2 members every week, then the total number of members would be

f(x) = y = 2 + 2(x-1), where x is the number of weeks.

Test this: If x = 1, then y = 2+2(1-1) = 2 + 0 = 2. This is correct. The club began with 2 members in week 1

Hi there!

We know that on week 1, there are two students.

That means when x=1, y should be 2.

After testing each answer choice, you can eliminate every single answer choice except for y=2x.

The "2" before the x in this equation means that y is increasing 2 units when x increases 1 unit, which matches the given information.

Thus, y = 2x should be your answer.

Have an awesome day! :)
