<u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Let the side of the square measure a cm, thus, according to the question,

  • New length = 3(a cm)

We know that,

➭ Area ( Square ) = a²

Thus, the area of the square with normal length i.e. a cm, will be,

⤳ Area = a x a

⤳ Area = a²

Now, by taking the new length, the area will become,

⤳Area = 3a x 3a

⤳ Area = 9a²

Now,

We observe that, if we divide these, we get,

➤ 9a²/a²

( a² will get canceled since its common )

Thus, the ratio becomes,

➭ 9 : 1 = Area square with tripled length : Area of square

Thus, the area will increase by 9 times, and not 3.

Hence, Ashley's assumptions are wrong.

At bike shop x it costs $2.75 per hour plus a $3.00 deposit to rent a bike. at bike shop z it costs $1.75 per hour plus a $7.00
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Multiply the rate per hour by the number of hours (n) and add the deposit.

A)

Bike shop x: c = 2.75n + 3.00

Bike shop z: c = 1.75n + 7.00

B) to find when they will cost the same set the equations equal to each other and solve for n:

2.75n + 3.00 = 1.75n + 7.00

Subtract 3 from each side:

2.75n = 1.75n + 4.00

Subtract 1.75n from both sides:

1.00n = 4.00

Divide both sides by 1:

n = 4 hours
