A college student takes the same number of credits each semester. Before beginning college, the student had some credits earned while in high school. After 2 semesters, the student had 45 credits, and after 5 semesters, the student had 90 credits. If C(t) is the number of credits after t semesters, write an equation that correctly represents this situation.
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
