Timothy makes reduced copies of a photograph that has an actual length of 8 in. Each time he presses the reduce button on the copier, the copy is reduced by 12%. What formula shows the pattern for the size of each copy of the photograph as it is reduced? What is the length of the photograph’s copy if Timothy presses the reduce button 5 times? Round to the nearest tenth. A. an = 8(0.88)n – 1; 4.8 in.
B. an = 8(0.88)n; 4.2 in.
C. an = 8(0.12)n – 1; 1.9 in.
D. an = 8(1.12)n; 7.1 in.
