Analyze the tile pattern and write a function for the pattern. Use x for the image number and y for the number of tiles in each image.
(2 points)
The function modeled by the pattern is , since the slope is and the y-intercept is .
To analyze the tile pattern, we need to identify the relationship between the image number (x) and the number of tiles in each image (y).
Looking at the pattern, we observe that for each image, the number of tiles in each image increases by 3. From the given information, we can infer that the slope of the function is 3.
A pattern can be represented by a linear equation of the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since the given information does not provide the y-intercept, we cannot determine the exact function equation.
However, we can say that the function is of the form y = 3x + b, where b represents the unknown y-intercept.
