While organizing the magazines at the doctor's office, Camille put 12 magazines in the first pile, 15 magazines in the second pile, 18 magazines in the third pile, 21 magazines in the fourth pile, and 24 magazines in the fifth pile. If this pattern continues, how many magazines will Camille put in the sixth pile?

27

Step-by-step explanation:

since you are adding 3 to the pile each time, on the 6th pile you would have 27 because 24 + 3 = 27

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
