Answer 1

Answer:

Linearly, because the table shows that the sunflowers increased by the same amount each month

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

$\begin{array}{lcccc}\text{Month}&1&2&3&4\\ \\\text{Sunflowers}&15&17.2&19.4&21.6\end{array}$

Note that months change one-by-one (21-1, 3-2=1, 4-3=1).

Also

$17.2-15=2.2\ [\text{from month 1 to month 2}]\\ \\19.4-17.2=2.2\ [\text{from month 2 to month 3}]\\ \\21.6-19.4=2.2\ [\text{from month 3 to month 4}]$

This means the number of sunflowers increases linearly, because the table shows that the sunflowers increased by the same amount each month
