Linear Patterns - Writing Expressions

Which expression represents the amount of calories you would consume based on the number of ounces of Hot Cheetos you eat, where x represents the number of ounces of cheetos you eat

• 170 + n

• 170 + 170 + 170

• 170n

• 170(n-1)

You have already ate 3 servings of Takis. Which expression would represent the amount of calories you would consume if you ate more? Let t represent the number of servings you consume after those first 3. (WRITE DOWN THE CORRECT ANSWER!!! - there are multiple for this one)

• 3(180) + 180t

• 180t

• 540 + 180(t-3)

• 180t + 3(180)

Using one of the correct expressions from #2 (180t +3(180) or 540 +180(t-3) ) --- please determine how many calories you would consume if you ate 10 more bags of takis (a total of 13)

• 1800

• 180 + 1000

• 2340

• 2180

What would the value of the 10th term be?

• 11

• 0

• -21

• -20

Write an expression that could be used to find the value of any term, x. (may be more than one answer)

• 11 + (- 3)(x - 2)

• 2 - 3x

• 17 - 3x

• -3x + 11

11 + (- 3)(x - 2)

Use the expression above from the data in the last 2 problems to find the 86th term,

• -200

• -241

• -1

• -141
