Question

In 1980, James planted a tree that was 1 foot tall. In 1996, that same tree was 51 feet tall. James finds that the height of the tree can be modeled by the
radical function H (t) = v kt + 1 where H (t) is the height of the tree in feet, t, is the number of years since 1980, and k is a specific constant. What
is the value of k?

Answer 1

Divide and see what you get = 51
