Question

A plant currently measures 5.5 inches tall and will grow at a rate of 1 inch per week. Andrew wants to graph this information for his Science Fair project. If x represents the number of weeks and y represents the height of the plant, which choice below correctly describes the y-intercept in this relationship?
(5.5, 0)

(0,1)

(0, 5.5)

(1, 5.5)

Answer 1

Answer:

0, 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

when they ask for a y-intercept, x is always zero, so now we eliminate two of the answers, and we will only have (0, 1) or (0, 5.5). At the beginning of the question it said a plant is currently at 5.5, so it started as 5.5 (0, 5.5)

so THE ANSWER IS  (0, 5.5)
