Question
Sonal and Anmol made a sequence of tile designs from square white tiles surrounding one square purple tile. The purple tiles come in many sizes. Three of the designs are shown below.
(a) Copy and complete the table
| Side Length of Purple Titles | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 10 | 100 |
| Number of white Tiles in Border |

Solution
(a) In side length 1 the number of white tile surrounding purple tile is 4.
Similarly, in side length 2 the number of white tiles surrounding purple tile is 8.
Thus, we can arrange the following table which shows side length of purple corresponding to the number of white tiles in border.
| Side length of purple | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 10 | 100 |
| Number of while titles in border | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 40 | 400 |
Hence, the table shows y = 8x + 16.
(b) On the basis of tables given in sol. (a) part, we draw the following graph
(c) If we join all points in above graph, we get a straight line. This shows, that all points lies on a line.
