Look at this table: X y 3 -36 4 -64 5 -100 6 - 144 7. -196 Write a linear (y = mx + b), quadratic (y = ax?), or exponential (y = a(b) function that models the data. y = ? ​

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the answer is y < -3 or   y > 3

-3y > 7 + 2

-3 y > 9

y < -3

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.

7 bagels for $4.41       $4.41/7 = $.63 each at fresh side

5 bagels for $3.60         $3.60/5 = $.72 each at value mart
