Problem: In the first week of school Kina’u Dorm started off with 12 girls. The next week 12 more girls moved in. The week after that 12 more girls moved in. If this pattern was to continue how many girls would there be in week 4? What is the function rule to this pattern? Problem: In the first week of school Kina’u Dorm started off with 12 girls. The next week 12 more girls moved in. The week after that 12 more girls moved in. If this pattern was to continue how many girls would there be in week 4? What is the function rule to this pattern? Solution: x y 1 12 Write out all of the information you know in a 2 24 table. 3 36 4 ? Take the 2 top #’s of the chart and subtract it straight across using it as 24 – 12 = 12 = 12 a fraction. Then divide your answer. 2 – 1 1 12 x 2= 24 Take your answer and multiply it by one of the x’s in the chart. If you get the same answer then your good. The function rule is y = 12x. x y 1 12 Use the function rule to get the rest of 2 24 the data for the chart. 3 36 4 ? y = 12x 12 x 4 = 48 In the 4th week of school, the total amount of girls that move in will be a total of 48 girls.
