Jake is observing the population growth of insects. He started with 24 insects and the population triples every day.
Use x to represent the # of days and y to represent the population of insects. Write an equation to represent the scenario.

Everyday the number is tripled by 3 and x represents the number of days, which we don’t know, so it would be 3x.
He started with 24.

So the equation is:

24+(3x)

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle 24 + 3x = y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This was simple, considering that "triple" means "three times as many". That leaves an initial value of 24. You set all of this equal to y.
