On a set of steps, the first step from the base of the steps is labeled 111, the second is labeled 222, and so on. Each step has the same height. The table below shows the step number and step's height from the base of the steps.
Step number Height from the base (meters)

Write an equation to describe the relationship between nnn, the step number, and hhh, the height from the base.

The equation that describes the relationship between n, the step number, and h, the height from the base is [tex]\mathbf{h = 0.2n}[/tex]

The sets of step are given as:

Step number (n)       Height from the base (h)

        50                                 10

        90                                 18

        110                                 22

The above table represents a linear relationship.

So, we start by calculating the slope (m)

[tex]\mathbf{m = \frac{h_2 -h_1}{n_2 -n_1}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{m = \frac{18 - 10}{90 - 50}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{m = \frac{8}{40}}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\mathbf{m = 0.2}[/tex]

The equation is then calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{h = m(n -n_1) + h_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{h = 0.2(n -50) + 10}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\mathbf{h = 0.2n -10 + 10}[/tex]

Evaluate like terms

[tex]\mathbf{h = 0.2n}[/tex]

Hence, the equation that describes the steps is [tex]\mathbf{h = 0.2n}[/tex]
