Part a) When a page is scaled down to 80%, how much enlargement is necessary to bring it back to its original size?
Let
x---------> the percent enlargement
Given the original size is 100%
This means:
x*80%=100%
x=(100%/80%)
x=1.25--------> 1.25=(125/100)=125%
Thus,
The answer to Part a) is
The percent enlargement required is 125%
Part b) Estimate how many successive copies of a page are needed to make the final copy less than 15% of its original size.
Since the photocopy machine reduces sizes to 80% of the original
Therefore:
Copy N 1
0.80*100%=80%
Copy N 2
0.80*80%=64%
Copy N 3
0.80*64%=51.2%
Copy N 4
0.80*51.2%=40.96%
Copy N 5
0.80*40.96%=32.77%
Copy N 6
0.80*32.77%=26.21%
Copy N 7
0.80*26.21%=20.97%
Copy N 8
0.80*20.97%=16.78%
Copy N 9
0.80*16.78%=13.42%-------------> 13.42% < 15%
Therefore,
The answer to Part b) is
The necessary number of copies to achieve this is 9
Answer : y>0
f(x) = 9*2^x
This function is exponential in form
Substituting positive numbers for x yields positive y values
Substituting negative numbers for x also results in positive y values
Therefore, y remains positive regardless of the value of x.
The range comprises all possible y outputs of the function
Since y is always positive, the range is y > 0
