Yuki wants to make a reduced-size copy
of a drawing. The original drawing is
14 inches long. Yuki's copier can only
reduce by 75%. Find the length of a copy
after Yuki reduces it 4 times at 75% each
time. Round your answer to the nearest
hundredth of an inch.
the answer is about 4.43 because by taking 75 percent each time, you are multiplying the already reduced drawing by 25 percent or keeping 75 percent. therefore the equation is 14 * 0.75^4 which leads to 4.43. This is a model for exponential growth
