A scientist is studying the growth of a particular species of plant. He writes the following equation to show the height of the

plant f(n), in cm, after n days:
f(n) = 12(1.03)n

Part A: When the scientist concluded his study, the height of the plant was approximately 16.13 cm. What is a reasonable domain to plot the growth function? (4 points)

Part B: What does the y-intercept of the graph of the function f(n) represent? (2 points)

Part C: What is the average rate of change of the function f(n) from n = 3 to n = 10, and what does it represent?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 16.13 = 12(1.03)ⁿ

   1.344 = (1.03)ⁿ

ln(1.344) = n(ln(1.03))

           n = (ln(1.344)) / ln(1.03)

           n = 10.0062...

so a domain of 0 ≤ n ≤ 10 is reasonable

B) y-intercept is the height of the plant on day 0 which would be 12 cm

C) f(3) = 12(1.03)³ = 13.11 cm

average rate of change = Δh/Δn = (16.13 - 13.11) / (10 - 3) = 3.02 / 7

= 0.43 cm/day  or average growth per day

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, i think the correct question is:

Kareem and Kira each opened a savings account today. Kareem opened his account with a starting amount of $770, and he is going to deposit $30 per month. Kira opened her account with a starting amount of $935, and she is going to deposit $45 per month. Let x be the number of months after today

Let us assume that each acre of land on Mars cost $107.

a) For Kareem account, she started with $770 and would deposit $30 per month. Let y represent the money deposited after x month. This can be represented by the equation:

y = 770 + 30x

Since each acre cost $107, 10 acre would cost $1070. Therefore $1070 is needed to be saved. To find the number of months, substitute y = 1070 and solve. Therefore:

1070 = 770 + 30x

1070 - 770 = 30x

30 x = 300

x = 300/30

x = 10

It would take 10 months for Kareem to buy 10 acres of land

b) For Kira account, she started with $935 and would deposit $45 per month. This can be represented by the equation:

y = 935 + 45x

Since each acre cost $107, 10 acre would cost $1070. Therefore $1070 is needed to be saved. To find the number of months, substitute y = 1070 and solve. Therefore:

1070 = 935 + 45x

1070 - 935 = 45x

45 x = 135

x = 3

It would take 3 months for Kira to buy 10 acres of land
