Note: A maximum number of 4 points are available for this question. Part A is worth 1 point. Part B is worth 1 point. Part C is worth 2 points. Brian received 45 trading cards from his mother and 25 trading cards from his uncle to start a collection.

Each week, Brian uses his allowance to buy a new pack of 15 trading cards to add to his collection.

The number of cards in Brian's collection can be represented by a linear function. Identify the rate of change and initial value of this function. Explain what these values represent in terms of the situation.

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
