This question is worded badly, so don't be alarmed.
Obviously if this were a square patter the number of red tiles could only be 1,4,9,16,25,36 etc and this is not the numbers given...It would help tremendously if they gave you another reference point so as to know how the tiles were being laid out.
If they are laid out alongside one another with a consistent border for each you wouldn't need 12 blue tiles for each red tile either...if two were laid side by side you would only need 20 blue tiles to have the border around both...you see how the arrangement makes a huge difference and you are given no details as to what that arrangement is...
So just to keep it simple, assume that each red tile is surrounded by 12 blue tiles....
Total tiles equals r+12r=13r
t=13r so
t(15)=195, t(20)=260, t(25)=325, t(30)=390

2.32 x 10⁵ = 232000
This can be solved by multiplying 2.32 to the product of 10 multiplied 5 times.
10⁵ = 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 *10
10⁵ = 100,000
2.32 x 100000 = 232000
The given equation is the standard form of a decimal number. It is used to write down a very large or very small number easily.
There are a lot of standard forms. Like: Standard form of an equation and Standard form of a polynomial.
For this case, what you should know is that Sue Jones insurance covers half of the expenses. Equivalently, her insurance covers:
10/20 = 1/2 = 0.5
Therefore, we have then that
a. for Albert
0.5 * (12000) = $ 6000
b. for Sam
0.5 * (8000) = $ 4000
c. total
The sum of the results of parts a and b
$ 6000 + $ 4000 = $ 10,000
answer
$ 6000
$ 4000
$ 10,000
Answer:
Before we graph 
we know that the slope, mx, could be read as 
. To graph the the equation of the line, we begin at the point (0,0). From that point, because our rise is negative (-1), instead of moving upwards or vertically, we will move downards. Therefore, from point 0, we will vertically move downwards one time. Now, our point is on point -1 on the y-axis. Now, we have 2 as our run. From point -1, we move to the right two times. We land on point (2,-1). Because we need various points to graph this equation, we must continue on. In the end, the graph will look like the first graph given.
For the equation y = 2, the line will be plainly horizontal. Why? Because x has no value in the equation. The variable 
does not exist in this linear equation. Therefore, it will look like the second graph below. We graph this by plotting the point, (0,2), on the y-axis.
