The answer is 9x^3-6x^2+3x
This is probably wrong but my guess is 13 so maybe verify it but that’s my best!

Answer: -20</h3>
==========================================================
Work Shown:
Let x be the location of E on the number line.
Since C is the midpoint of E and F, this means we can find C's location by adding E and F together and dividing that sum by 2
midpoint = (endpoint1 + endpoint2)/2
C = (E+F)/2
Plug in E = x, C = -8 and F = 4. Then solve for x
C = (E+F)/2
-8 = (x+4)/2
(x+4)/2 = -8
x+4 = 2(-8) .... multiplying both sides by 2
x+4 = -16
x = -16-4 .... subtract 4 from both sides
x = -20
The location of point E on the number line is -20
-------------
As a check, lets add E and F to get E+F = -20+4 = -16
Then cut this in half to get -16/2 = -8, which is the proper location of point C
This confirms our answer.
C, I’m pretty sure
Why do I have to write 20 words for this? This is why I’m rambling.
So you basically add the amount it grew each week. So week one is 2 and 1/2, week two is 2 and 3/4 and week three is 3 and 1/4. to make things simpler, add week two and three which gets you 6inches, then add week one, to get 8 and a half inches.
