Answer:

It represents a linear function because there is a constant rate of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, if the rate of change for y ( output value ) with respect to x ( input value ) remains constant for a function then it is called linear function.

Here, number of hours represents input value and minutes represents the output value,

Now, By the given table,

The function is passing through the points (1,60), (2,120), (3,180), (4,240) and (5,300),

Also,

\frac{120-60}{2-1}=\frac{180-120}{3-2}=\frac{240-180}{4-3}=\frac{300-240}{5-4}=60

⇒  The rate of change output value with respect to input value remains constant,

Hence, It represents a linear function because there is a constant rate of change.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

117 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of garden = 234 yards

Breadth of garden = 1 yard

She grows roses 1/2 of her garden.

Question asked:

How many square yards are Gini's garden has roses ?

Solution:

First of all we will find area of rectangular garden.

Area \  of \  rectangle = Length\times breadth

                             =234\times1 =234  \ square \ yards

Then, as here given half of garden, she grows roses, we will find half of the

rectangular garden.

\frac{1}{2} \ of 234\\\frac{1}{2} \times234 =117\ square\ yards

Therefore, 117 square yards of her garden has roses.
