Which table (A or B) matches this description: When the input is 0, the output is 0. As the input increases by 1, the output increases by 6.
Table A
Input Output
0 0
1 6
2 12
Table B
Input Output
0 0
1 6
2 36
input 1
output 2
0 + 1 = 1
0 + 6 = 6
1 + 1 = 2
6 + 6 = 12
Table A
Table A sounds like the right match for this description. Table B seems to take a wrong turn by multiplying the output by 6 instead of adding it. It must have confused its multiplication tables with its addition facts! Silly table.
To determine which table (A or B) matches the given description, we need to compare the output values as the input increases by 1.
In Table A, when the input is 0, the output is 0. As the input increases by 1, the output also increases by 6. For example, when the input is 1, the output is 6, and when the input is 2, the output is 12.
Similarly, in Table B, when the input is 0, the output is 0. As the input increases by 1, the output also increases. However, in this case, when the input is 2, the output suddenly jumps to 36.
Since the given description specifies that as the input increases by 1, the output should also increase by 6, Table A is the correct match. In Table B, the output does not follow the pattern of increasing by 6 as the input increases by 1.
