Question

Stacy has 3 collector’s cards. She receives 2 more cards each week that she volunteers

at the student center.

Let x = the number of weeks.
Let y = the number of collector’s cards.

Write an equation that represents this problem.

Answer 1

y=2x+3 because we know she gets 2 more cards each week she volunteers but we dont know how many weeks she volunteered so 2x is correct + the 3 cards she already has. so y=2x+3

Answer 2

y=2x+3
