Eric has $27.00 and wants to buy comic books. If each comic book costs $4.00, create a table and graph the arithmetic sequence to display how much money Eric has left after each comic book purchase. Which graph is an accurate representation of the problem?(1
The table representing the arithmetic sequence for Eric's money left after each comic book purchase would look like this:
| Comic Book Purchase | Money Left |
|--------------------|------------|
| 0 | $27.00 |
| 1 | $23.00 |
| 2 | $19.00 |
| 3 | $15.00 |
| 4 | $11.00 |
| 5 | $7.00 |
| 6 | $3.00 |
| 7 | $0.00 |
Graphically, the sequence would be represented by a line passing through the points (0, $27.00), (1, $23.00), (2, $19.00), (3, $15.00), (4, $11.00), (5, $7.00), (6, $3.00), (7, $0.00).
Graph 2 can be described as an accurate representation of the problem, as it shows a line gradually decreasing until it reaches $0.00.
