Question

A plant 3 in. tall grows an average of 0.5 in. each month. Which equation models the flower’s height h after x months?
3 = x + 0.5
h = 0.5x + 3
h = 3x + 0.5
h = 0.5 = x + 3

Answer 1

height = 0.5 * number of months (x) + 3 inches it already grew
so it would be :
h = 0.5x + 3

Answer 2

i got it the same answer too :)

Answer 3

if you let x=0, the initial height at zero time is 3
h(0) = 3

the second one is h=3 when x=0
