The initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that After writing part of his novel, Thomas is now writing 16 pages per week
After 4 weeks, he has written 85 pages.
Given that assume the relationship to be linear
Linear relationships can be expressed either in a graphical format or as a mathematical equation of the form y = mx + c
y = mx + c
where "y" is the number of pages written after 4 weeks
x = 4 weeks and m = 16 pages
Therefore,
85 = 16(4) + c
85 = 64 + c
c = 85 - 64
c = 21
Therefore, initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week
The distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, The distance between City A and City B is 250 miles.
A length of 2.3 feet represents this distance on a certain wall map.
City C and City D are 4.14 feet apart on this map.
We have to find what is the actual distance between City C and City D?
Now, distance between a and b is 250 miles ⇒ 2.3 feet on map
Then, distance between c and d be n miles ⇒ 4.14 feet on map.
Now, by chris cross method.
250 x 4.14 = 2.3 x n miles.
2.3n = 1035
n = 450
Hence, the distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.
6 and 8 I believe is the answer
