We can assume that this growth rate can be expressed as y = mx + b as long as the slope is constant, because a quadratic or exponential formula wouldn't make much sense in this situation. If it is growing at least 2 inches a month, the slope (m) will be 2. As x (month) increases by 1 month, y (plant's height) increases by 2 inches. You could make it more, but as long as you plot the points in such a way that the slope for these points are 2 or higher, you will get the answer correct. If you have any other questions or need to clarify more about what you wanted let me know and I'll help.
Answer: 3 : 2
Step-by-step explanation:
fiction : non fiction
= 3 : 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of solid
= Area of Square + 4 * Area of Triangle
= (2)(2) + 4 * [(0.5)(2)(5)]
= 4 + 4 * 5
= 24 square inches. (3)
