1.) At the start of the year, the mall's lost-and-found box has 71 items in it. Every day, mall employees add 13 more items to the lost-and-found box. Write an equation for the function that relates the number of items in the box and the number of days since the start of the year. Then, find how many items will be in the box 20 days after the start of the year?


2.) Conrad looks at the equation y= 4x^2+8. He sees that two coordinate pairs satisfying this equation are (6, 8) and (1, 12). He says since those two points lie along a line, then y= 4x^2 +8 must be a linear function. Is Conrad correct?
