Answer 1

Answer:

the third option

Step-by-step explanation:

the 5 pounds weight at birth is the starting value.

so, the function needs to have a constant part of at least +5.

and every month 0.5 pounds are added.

that is exactly the situating to use multiplication : weight gain per month times the number of months (plus the starting value of 5 pounds) delivers the weight after a certain number of months.

w = weight after t months

t = number of months measured
