The required function is:

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the baby increases 2lbs per month which means that it is a linear function.

Now given that the initial weight was 8lbs it will remain constant.

Let t be the number of months and as the weight gain is 2 lbs per month, 2t will be the weight gain after t months.

The function can be written as:

Hence,

The required function is:

step-by-step explanation:

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
