Answered

The student council decided that for every ticket purchased, the buyer receives a certain number of entries for the raffle drawing. The table below shows this.

A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled Tickets purchased with entries 1, 2, 3, 4. Column 2 is labeled Entries with entries 3, 4, 5, 6.

Which statement shows the rule for the relationship between the two quantities?
The number of tickets purchased is 2 more than the number of entries in the raffle drawing.
The number of entries in the raffle drawing is double the number of tickets purchased.
The number of entries in the raffle drawing is 2 more than the number of tickets purchased.
The number of tickets purchased is one-third the number of entries in the raffle drawing.



Answer :

1. The student council decided that for every ticket purchased, the buyer receives a certain number of entries for the raffle drawing.

2. The table below shows the relationship between the number of tickets purchased and the number of entries received:

| Tickets Purchased | Entries |

|--------------------|---------|

| 1                  | 3       |

| 2                  | 4       |

| 3                  | 5       |

| 4                  | 6       |

3. We need to determine the rule for the relationship between the number of tickets purchased and the number of entries received.

4. Let's analyze the data in the table to find the relationship. We see that as the number of tickets purchased increases by 1, the number of entries also increases by 1 (e.g., from 3 to 4, 4 to 5, and 5 to 6).

5. Based on this analysis, we can conclude that the number of entries in the raffle drawing is 2 more than the number of tickets purchased. Therefore, the correct statement showing the rule for the relationship between the two quantities is: "The number of entries in the raffle drawing is 2 more than the number of tickets purchased."

So, the correct answer is: "The number of entries in the raffle drawing is 2 more than the number of tickets purchased."
