Victoria's method is linear because the number of minutes increase by an equal number (15) every month.
Workings in the attachments below. The green line is the function that has been set up for Victoria. The lines that form a curved looking graph belong to the function that was set up for Zach.
Answer:
3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Lenght = 18 inches
Width =15 inches
Perimeter of the rectangular painting and frame = 90 inches
Let X be the width of the frame
The width of the framed picture = 15 + 2x
The length of the framed picture = 18 + 2x
Perimeter = 2 (L + W)
90 = 2(15 + 2x + 18+ 2x)
90 = 2(33 + 4x)
90 = 66 + 8x
8x = 90 - 66
8x = 24
x = 24/8
x = 3 inches
the width of the frame is 3 inches
Ben drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 40 minutes.
This means that he would drink 1 3/4 of tea every 20 minutes (divide both sides by 2).
Now, let's multiply each side by 3.
1.75 * 3 = 5.25 (aka 5 1/4)
20 * 3 = 60 minutes (an hour)
He drinks 5 1/4 liters of tea in one hour.
x^2 = 81/100
Let's take the square root of each side
x = 0.9 and -0.9
