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.
