Step-by-step explanation:
Jane is given a $100 gift to start and saves $35 a month from her allowance.
- After 1 month, Jane has saved
- After 2 months, Jane has saved
- After three months, Jane has saved
- and so on
In general, after x months Jane has saved
This means that it makes sense to represent the relationship between the amount saved and the number of months with one constant rate (in this case the constant rate is 35). It makes sense because the amount of money increases by $35 each month. Since the amount of increase is constant, we get constant rate. Also the initial amount is known ($100), so there is a possibility to write the equation of linear function representing this situation.
<u>Complete Question:</u>
Janeel has a 10 inch by 12 inch photograph. She wants to scan the photograph, then reduce the results by the same amount in each dimension to post on her Web site. Janeel wants the area of the image to be one eight of the original photograph. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image. Find the dimensions of the reduced image.
<u>Correct Answer:</u>
A)
B) Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
a. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image.
Let the reduced dimensions is by x , So the new dimensions are
According to question , Area of new image is :
⇒
⇒
⇒
So the equation will be :
⇒
b. Find the dimensions of the reduced image
Let's solve :
⇒
⇒
⇒
By Quadratic formula :
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
x = 15 is rejected ! as 15 > 10 ! Side can't be negative
⇒
Therefore, Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch
