Lucia already knew 1 appetizer recipes before starting culinary school, and she will learn 3 new appetizer recipes during each week of school. After how many weeks of culinary school will Lucia know a total of 40 appetizer recipes?

Respuesta :

w e can writhe a equation

[tex]y=3x+1[/tex]

where y is the total of recipes and x the weeks

y=40 according to the text

so, we can replace y and solve x to know the weeks

[tex]\begin{gathered} 40=3x+1 \\ 40-1=3x \\ x=\frac{39}{3} \\ x=13 \end{gathered}[/tex]

so she will know 40 appetizer recipes on 13 weeks
