Complete the table using the equation p=7d+6.
d p

8
9
10 76

Answer 1

Answer: 55, 62, 69, 76

Explanation:

(to complete the table, plug d values into the equation to find p values)

p = 7d + 6, d = 7

p = 7(7) + 6 = 49 + 6 = 55

p = 7d + 6, d = 8

p = 7(8) + 6 = 56 + 6 =62

p = 7d + 6, d = 9

p = 7(9) + 6 = 63 + 6 =69

p = 7d + 6, d = 10

p = 7(10) + 6 = 70 + 6 =76
