Answer 14

No, I was just asking. Do you have any answer choices?

Answer 15

oh ok..no i don't

Answer 16

Alright, since the problem says there will be no rainfall during the year, subsitute 0 in for the R. Everything cancels out except the +2 at the end, therefore there will be no year that the tree doesn't grow.
Makes sense?

Answer 17

The +2 is a constant, which means an additional 2units of growth will occur plus whatever the rain adds. Make sense?

yes ma'am makes sense :)

Answer 34

Min as in the minimum point on a graph, correct?

The minimum opens up, and it can be negative or positive depending on the graph itself.
