Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Description: 
Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.

Answer: 
No. Completing neither of these problems requires replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other equation.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

Complete the table. In the third column, show your work as demonstrated. What do you notice about the 3rd column?
| $x$ | $y=2x+5$ | $\Delta y$ |
|-----|----------|------------|
|  1  |    7     |    ----    |
|  2  |    9     | 9 - 7 = 2  |
|  3  |          |            |

Complete the table, showing your work as above. What do you notice about the 3rd column? What is the graphical interpretation of this?
| $x$ |    $y=ax+b$    |            $\Delta y$             |
|-----|----------------|-----------------------------------|
|  1  | $a\cdot 1 +b$  |                ---                |
|  2  | $a \cdot 2 +b$ | $a\cdot 2+b - (a\cdot 1 + b) = a$ |
|  3  |                |                                   |
|  4  |                |                                   |
|  5  |                |                                   |
Let $y=ax+b$. Let $x_0$ be any particular $x$-value. Show that if $x_0$ is increased by 1, the corresponding $\Delta y$ is a constant that does not depend on $x_0$. What is this constant?
Does (a) serve as an example of the result in (c) ? Explain.
