the answer is c 3/2 x - 3 = y. :)
In 5 years one California Palm tree grew = 85 inches.
Then in 1 year the California palm tree grew = (85/5) inches
= 17 inches
Again
A queen palm tree in 8 years grew = 96 inches
In 1 year the queen palm tree grew = (96/8) inches
= 12 inches.
So the California palm tree is growing at a faster rate than the queen palm tree. This is the easiest way of solving this kind of problems. Hope that i have explained the problem enough for you to understand and attempt such problems in the future without anyone's help.

Answer:
f(2) =30
Step-by-step explanation:
f(1)=15
f(n)=f(n-1)*n
Put in n=2
f(2)=f(2-1)*2
= f(1) *2
= 15*2
=30
Answer:
x = - 3 is extraneous
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 1 = x ( add 1 to both sides )
= x + 1 ( square both sides )
x + 7 = (x + 1)² ← distribute right side
x + 7 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )
0 = x² + x - 6 ← in standard form
0 = (x + 3)(x - 2) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.
x = - 3 : 
- 1 = 
- 1 = 2 - 1 = 1 ≠ - 3
x = 2 : 
- 1 = 
- 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
x = 2 is a solution and x = - 3 is extraneous
