Question

The table below shows the number of skateboards sold at a skate shop each week for five weeks.

w # of weeks 1 2 3 4 5

skateboards sold 22 44 66 88 110

Which equation represents the relationship between w, the number of weeks and s the number of skateboards sold?


s = 22w

s = 22/w

s = w/22

s - w = 22

Answer 1

A. s = 22w

Explanation:

22/1 = 22

44/2 = 22

66/3 = 22

88/4 = 22

110/5 = 22

Answer 2

s = 22w

Explanation:

We need to try this equation for all of the numbers in the table.

s = 22w

22 = 22 * 1

s = 22w

44 = 22 * 2

s = 22w

66 = 22 * 3

s = 22w

88 = 22 * 4

s = 22w

110 = 22 * 5
