Answer:

In this equation, the y-intercept (+ 5) represents the original height of the plant. 2x represents the amount of growth multiplied by the number of days, x.

Answer: C) the y-intercept is the starting height of the plant

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line, there is a slope (2) and a y intercept (5). The y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. It is the starting point for the y values. The science class starts the experiment with the plant being 5 centimeters high and since this is the starting point/height, this is also the y intercept.

Which number line shows point A at 3, point B at −1.5, point C at , and point D, which is the opposite of point A?
Oduvanchick [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that point A is at 3.

This is 3 units to the right of 0 on the number line.

The point that is opposite of A should be 3 units to the left of 0.

That point will be at -3.

Therefore you have to choose the point that is on -3.

It should be similar to one in the attachment.
