Answer:

h(t) = 12 inches + (1 inch/week)t; continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be described with a linear function.  The initial value of the plant height is 12 inches, and the weekly growth is 1 inch/week.

Thus, if h(t) represents the plant height at the end of the t-th week,

h(t) = 12 inches + (1 inch/week)t

The slope is 1 inch/week, and is continuous, since plan growth is continuous.

Please help! I'm getting timed.

Hi there! The answer is A.

t = 2(s + 2)
To get a proper idea of the type of function this formula represents we work out the parenthesis.

Working out the parenthesis can for instance be done using rainbow technique.
t = 2s + 4

We can now see sinilarities between this function an the general function of a line in slope intercept form
y = mx + n

The function t therefore describes a line with slope 2 and y-intercept 4. Therefore the answer is A.
