Franklin's office just started a new recycling program this year. They aim to recycle 7 kilograms of paper each week. Write an equation that shows the relationship between the number of weeks Franklin's office is on the recycling program, x, and the total number of kilograms of paper recycled, y

7x=y

Step-by-step explanation:

7x=y

Step-by-step explanation:

7x=y

7 times x(#of weeks)= y (paper recycled)

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
