Answer:
B. The statement does not make sense because a linear function has a straight-line graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear functions have a general form y = m*x +b and only yield straight-line graphs. Therefore, the statement does not make sense, either the graphed function is not linear, or there was an error in the graphing process. The answer is alternative B.
*Note that alternative D is wrong because it is incomplete, since linear functions can have a rate of change that increases (m > 0), decreases (m < 0) or that is zero (m = 0).
So the answer to this question is:
A= bees: f(t) = 1500 × (0.88)∧t
plants: g(t) = 800 - 25×t
B: (Bees) 1500 × (0.88)∧6= 696.60
After 6 months (696 bees ):
800 - 25×6 = 650 (Flowering Plants)
After 6 months:
650 flowering plants
C: 1500 × (0.88)∧t=800 - 25×t
t = 6.779965672
Answer is it will take 7 months or 6 for the bees and the plants.
Hope this helps!
