The cost of T-shirts varies with the number of T-shirts. The data is shown in the graph. If x = the number of shirts and y = the cost, which equation models Bill's direct variation?

Answer is in the photo. I can't attach it here, but I've uploaded it to a file hosting. link below! Good Luck!

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
