In a mobile data plan, data is (D(d)=2+1.5d) GB. What will be the total data at (d=4)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 8 GB
Substitute d=4: D(4)=2+1.5×4=2+6=8 GB. Therefore, 8 GB is correct. 7.5 GB accounts only for 1.5×4 and misses the initial 2 GB. Exam tip: after substitution in a linear expression, multiply first and then add.
