Question 1056779: When Jack went to the movie he paid $8 for his popcorn and $4 for each additional order of popcorn. If y represents the total cost and x represents the number of popcorn orders, what is the function rule that describes this pattern? Answer by josgarithmetic(39618) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Unclear or ambiguous. No way to know how many popcorn orders were allowed in the first $8 purchase. Was it one; was it two, was it three? The only pattern you can make is for anything after the first $8 part. Just for anything after, is y=4x.
