Answer:[tex]y=6+x\times 8[/tex]

Given
Alligator is 6 inches long at the time of birth
It grows 8 inches per year
If y is the length of alligator at any year
so at time of birth [tex]y=6\ in[/tex]
after an year
[tex]y=6+8[/tex]
after 2 years
[tex]y=6+2\times 8[/tex]
so we can write
[tex]y=6+x\times 8[/tex]
where x=no of years passed
