Rhea draws rows and columns on a big piece of paper to make 16 same-sized squares. How many rows and columns does she draw? I

4 rows and 4 columns

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

16 same sized squares

Required

Determine the number of rows and columns

Since the shape formed is a square, then the following relationships exist:

can then be rewritten as:

Take square roots of both sides

implies that:

the slope of the first function is -3. (3/1)

the slope of the second function is 1. (13-10/6-3).

since |-3| is greater than |1|, the function with the steepest slope is the first.
