<u>Function Modeling</u>
We need to find a function that models the total cost R(t) of Ebuka's rent if he pays it t weeks late.
We know that the normal rate for the rent is $750. Each week she will be charged by an additional 4%. Let's suppose she is 1 week late. The rent will be
Assuming the percent interest is computed on the previous value, if Ebuka is 2 weeks late, the payment should be
Since the new value is computed from the previous value, it's an exponential grow, and the rate of change is
Each week t Ebuka is late, the total payment is
Using proportions, the number of 1/4 cup servings that she can make is given by:
B. 3 and 5/9.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.
For this problem, considering that Susie has 8/9 of a cup, the following <u>rule of three</u> is established:
1 serving - 1/4 cups
x servings - 8/9 cups
Applying cross multiplication:
9x = 32
x = 32/9
Since 32 divided by 9 has quotient 3 with remainder 5, the correct option is given by:
B. 3 and 5/9.
