you need to find how much the output changes for each unit change in the input. (ie from an input change from 5 to 6 the output changes by three units and an input change of 3 (2 - 5 ) units the output changes by 9 units). This will give you the gradient of the equation. then you have to find out the y intercept by finding what the output is when the input is 0. Do this by multiplying the input by the gradient and then subtracting it from that inputs output. This will give you the answer A) 3x
(Sorry, its a bit wordy :) )
Answer:
Herbs are small plants that have a fleshy or juicy stem when they are young. The stems of some herbs develop hard, woody tissue when they grow old. Most herbs are perennials. This means that the tops of the plants die each growing season, but the roots remain alive and produce new plants year after year.
Step-by-step explanation:
2^4 = 16
3^5 = 243
16 - 243 = -227
