Question 34597: This is a problem my mom gave me and it is driving me crazy. I am in the 5th grade and in an advanced math class, but I cannot get this. The problem is to write an algebraic expression that will let me describe a set of data. The data when plotted on a grid has one row of 3 tiles then three rows of 5 tiles then one row of 3 tiles and then three rows of 5 tiles and keps on repeating. So the data in two colums (column one being tiles in next row and column two being the total tiles 'so far) is as follows:
# tiles (Column 1) Total So Far (Column 2)
3 3
5 8
5 13
5 18
3 21
5 26
5 31
5 36
3 39
Can you please help me write an algebraic expression to describe the above data?

Question 34795This question is from textbook Prentice Hall Mathematics: Course 3
: Hi,
I need to graph this problem:y=x+2
y=2x+1
I know that the solution is (1,3). Its just every time that I try to graph the equation, my lines dont cross correctly. So that you are not confused with what I am talking about, I am supposed to be solving linear systems by graphing. Please, if you can email this to me before 4/25/06 since it is 4/24/06 that would be great! Thank you and have a great day!
Sincerely,
