Question

Sally generates an input-output table using two rules. The input rule is “add 2 2” and the starting number is 3 3. The output rule is “add 4 4” and the starting number is 6 6. The table is shown. ​ ​ Which ordered pairs follow the same rules as the pattern in the table? Select two answer choices. A (9,12)(9,12) B (11,22)(11,22) C (15,25)(15,25) D (17,36)(17,36) E (21,42)(21,42)

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

B (11, 22)

E (21, 42)

Explanation:

The numbers in the input sequence are ...

`i_n=i_1+d(n-1)\\\\i_n=3+2(n-1) = 2n+1`

The numbers in the output sequence are ...

`o_n=o_1+d(n-1)\\\\o_n=6+4(n-1)=4n+2=2(2n+1)\\\\o_n=2* i_n`

So, the ordered pairs we're looking for have an output value that is double the input value.

The two that match this characteristic are ...

B(11, 22) and E(21, 42)
