Using the given linear function of best-fit, the most likely approximate height of the plant after 8 weeks would be of 7.4 centimeters.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
The line of best-fit goes through points (0,1) and (5,5). Point (0,1) means that the y-intercept is of b = 1. The slope is given as follows:
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 0) = 4/5 = 0.8.
Hence the equation that gives the approximate height after x weeks is:
y = 0.8x + 1.
After 8 weeks, the expected height is:
y = 0.8 x 8 + 1 = 6.4 + 1 = 7.4 centimeters.

Answer:
(StartRoot 2 EndRoot, negative 1) and (negative StartRoot 2 EndRoot, negative 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
----> equation A
-----> equation B
solve by substitution
substitute equation B in equation A
solve for x
<em>Find the value of y</em>
For 
----> 
For 
----> 
therefore
The solutions are
(StartRoot 2 EndRoot, negative 1) and (negative StartRoot 2 EndRoot, negative 1)
Since f(x) = -3x + 2, the slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x).
Hence, the answer is (D).
Answer:
A. 0
Step-by-step explanation:
In a function, all x-coordinates must be different.
The given function already shows 1, 2, 5, and 8 as x-coordinates, so you must choose a number other than those.
Answer: 0
