Question
Creating a Table of Values and a Graph
Lan Ying works at a company that produces different sizes of square tiles for
bathrooms and kitchens.
She determines shipping costs by calculating the perimeter of each tile.
*The perimeter is determined by adding the lengths of the 4 sides of each tile.
a) Calculate the perimeter, and complete the table below (the first row has been
given).
cm had
Side Perimeter

2 cm by 2 cm
3 em by 3 cm

b) Describe what happens to the perimeter of each tile when the side length increases
by one centimetre.
c) Construct a graph of the perimeter of a tile versus the side length of the tile.
Label the axes and include a scale
The independent variable goes on the horizontal axis.
(it is the quantity that changes on its own i.e. time)
The dependent variable goes on the vertical axis.
(it is the quantity that we are looking for the change in/reaction as
units of the independent variable increase i.e. distance, cost, ..)
