Answer:
y = 43.55 + 2.15t
Explanation:
We were told that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 37.1 pounds, and in 1989 it was 50 pounds.
If we assume t = 0 corresponds to year 1980. Then, for 1983 it will be t = 3 and for 1989,it will be t = 9.
Thus, expressing the information as ordered pairs, we have; (3,37. 1) and (9,50).
Let us now find slope of the linear function:
m1 = (y2 - y1)/(t2 - t1)
m1 = (50 - 37.1)/(9 - 3)
m1 = 2.15
So, we can find the linear equation as;
y - 37.1 = 2.15(t - 3)
y = 37.1 + 2.15t - 6.45
y = 43.55 + 2.15t

Answer:
C. Plants converting sunlight into chemical energy.
Explanation:
An "endothermic reaction" is a process whereby <em>energy coming from the surroundings is being absorbed as heat.</em> This activates the reaction to occur. Since it absorbs the heat to start the reaction, then it can be classified as an endothermic reaction.
When plants convert sunlight into chemical energy, it absorbs the sunlight as a light energy on its chlorophyll. This is where photosynthesis occur. This then results to the chlorophyll reacting with the carbon dioxide, water and the energy which results to the production of <em>oxygen and glucos</em>e.
So, this explains the answer.
