Each X value is multiplied by
to get the Y value.




To find the rule, you may have to do some trial and error. The most important thing to remember is, once you think you have the rule, make sure to test the rule with all of the X values.

Multiply 4 and 4 to yield 16. Carry the 1 and multiply 4 by 1. The result is 4. Add the carried 1 to yield 56.
Now multiply 1 by 4 to yield 4, then 1 by 1 to yield 1. The result is 14, place a 0 at the end to make the number 140. Add to 56 to yield 196.

Madison invests $1,500 in the stock market. After one year, Madison's initial amount of money doubles! Because of her prior success, she invests another $1,000 into the stock market. After this additional investment, how much money does Madison have in the stock market?

Tap to see back →
Madison begins with $1,500. Because her initial investment doubles, we need to multiply the beginning amount of money by two!

Now, Madison has $3,000 in the stock market. Because of her success, she decides to put in another $1,000, which means we need to add that to $3,000 to get the correct answer ($4,000)!
