Question

The yearly production of a 5 foot orange tree is 24
pounds of oranges. A 17 foot tree produces 100 pounds.
Let h represent the height of an orange tree and p
the number of pounds of oranges produced. Use the
information to answer the questions shown below.

A) List the ordered pairs (h,p)

What is the ordered pair for the first tree?
(5,24)

What is the second ordered pair?
(17,100)

B) Find the point-slope form of an equation of the
line through the two ordered pairs.

A. p=19/3h-23/3 B. p-24=-19/3(h-5)
C. p-24=19/3(h-5) D. p-5=3/19(h-24)

C) Use the equation from part B) to predict the number
of pounds of oranges produced by an 18 foot tree; a
20 foot tree.

What is the predicted production of an 18 foot tree?

What is the predicted production of a 20 foot tree?

D) Use the equation from part B) to predict the height
of a tree which produces 88 pounds of oranges.

What is the predicted height (in feet) of a tree that
produces 88 pounds of oranges?

Part A I already answered.

Answer 1

how did u figure out the predicted height of the tree
