Side of the <span>square tile = x-3 </span>⇒ Area = (x-3)² = x² - 6x + 9
You could say that a(n) = 12 - 5n .
Then ...
a(1) = 12 - 5 = 7
a(2) = 12 - 10 = 2
a(3) = 12 - 15 = -3
and so on.
So it seems to work.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2340 miles
Given
1 inch represents 10 miles
thus,
1 inch on map = 10 miles in real
given the two cities are 234 inches apart on map
1 inch on map = 10 miles in real
multiplying both side by 234
1 inch*234 on map = 10 miles*234 in real
234 inch on map = 2340 miles in real.
Thus, two cities are 2340 miles apart.
For this case we have that by definition, a direct variation is given in the form:

Where:
k: It is the constant of proportionality
According to the statement we have to:

Substituting:


On the other hand we have:


Answer:

Check the picture below
notice, the "a" side goes from -2 to 11
and the "b" side goes from 2 down to -4
