Answer:

Which plant was taller when Nara got the plants? C. They were equally tall

Which plant grew faster? B. The second plant

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the first plant :

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2- x1)

m = (36 - 34)/(15 - 10) = 0.4

y-intercept of the first plant :

y = m*x + b

b = y1 - m*x1

b = 34 - 0.4*10 = 30

From the picture we can see that the y-intercept of the second plant is 30 cm

Y-intercept represents plant heights when Nara got the plants; then they were equally tall

From the picture we can see that second plant grew 2 cm in 2 days; then its slope is 2/2 = 1

Slope measures how fast each plant grew; then the second plant grew faster

Suppose that 6 out of 24 people leave a meeting early. what percent of the people leave early

Alisiya [41]

25% of people leave early as 6 is 1/4 of 24. You can solve this by dividing 6 by 24 (I believe, maybe check with someone on that but that’s how i figured it out).

Can I get the answers for number 14 plz?

nataly862011 [7]

A.
-1:
$2(2)^{-1} \\ 2( \frac{1}{2}) \\ \frac{2}{2} \\ 1$
(-1,1)

0:
$2(2)^{0} \\ 2(1) \\ 2$
(0, 2)

1:
$2(2)^{1} \\ 2(2) \\ 4$
(1, 4)

2:
$2(2)^{2} \\ 2(4) \\ 8$
(2, 8)

3:
$2(2) ^{3} \\ 2(8) \\ 16$
(3,16)

b.
To graph the equation, simply go through the points (-2, 0.5), (-1, 1), (0,2), (1,4), (2,8), and (3,16). Make sure you never go below 0 on the x-axis, because there's an asymptote there.

Hope this helps!
