Explanation:
Week 1, you eat 10 out of 95
Week 1 r ( 1) = 95 - 10(1) =85
Week 5 r(5) = 95 - 10r
=95 - 10(5)
=95 - 50
=45lbs
Week 8 r(8) = 95 - 10.r
=95 - 10(8)
=95 - 80
= 15 lbs
Week w r(w) = 95 - 10.w
= 95 - 10W (lbs)
f(r) = 95 - 10r
Where r is the number of weeks.
r(w) =35 means that at the end of w weeks, there were 35 candies left.
If the original candy was 95 and 35 was left after w weeks
r(w) = 95 - 10w
35 = 95 - 10w
Subract 95 from both sides
-60 = - 10w
Divide both sides by - 10
6= w
The solution means that 35 candies were left after w weeks and w represents 6weeks.
