GIVE DAN A MEDAL

Answer 1

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) = 8(1.05)n

Part A: When the scientist concluded his study, the height of the plant was approximately 11.26 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 = 2 to n = 6, and what does it represent? (4 points)

Answer 2

the answer is message me

Answer 3

@dan815 youre my only hope can u help me plz?

Answer 4

Start with the equation of a line you have
f(n)=8*(1.05)n

Answer 5

Lets see how many day or "n" would give us 11.26 cm height

Answer 6

10 something

Answer 7

11.26=8*(1.05)n
11.26=8.40n
11.26/8.40=n

Answer 8

\[\frac{ 11.26 }{ 8.40 }= n\]

Answer 9

yes, what does that come out to be

Answer 10

solve for n?

Answer 11

Yes, can you tell me what that fraction is in decimal form

Answer 12

is it a long jumble of numbers?

Answer 13

That's fine round it off to 2 decimals

Answer 14

1.34

Answer 15

Okay well sow now we know that since he stops his experiment, when the height is 11.26 and that is after, we can pick a reasonable domain to graph our function

Answer 16

Since n = # of days, it would be a little silly to have negative days , so we should start with n=0 and go upto n=1.5 lets say for a nicer number

Answer 17

You can also be exact and say, n from 0 to 1.34

Answer 18

wait hold on a second we need to find everything? all of the points I kinda don't get what ur satying here

Answer 19

*saying

Answer 20

No, we dont need to find all the points, we have enough points, we just have to draw the line like this

Answer 21

My turn! :D
