Answer:
5) Part A: The rate of change, also known as the slope, is the "0.6x" part of the equation. It means that for every week the puppy is alive, x, that number is multiplied by 0.6 pounds.
Part B: The y-intercept is 4 pounds, which represents a puppy being 4 pounds at birth.
Part C: y = 0.6x + 4
y = 0.6(8)+4
y = 8.8
At 8 weeks, a puppy is estimated to be 8.8 pounds.
Part D: y = 0.6x + 4
22 = 0.6 + 4
-4 -4
18 = 0.6x
18/0.6 = 0.6x/0.6
30 = x
It would take a puppy 30 weeks to reach 22 pounds.
4.41 because .409 rounds up to .41,
Step-by-step explanation:
In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5

Suppose if a_5 is the nth term then previous term is a_4
To get the previous term we need to subtract 1 from the n
So a_n is the nth term
is the previous term
Here 5 represents the common difference between two terms
So value of previous term is represented by
