Question

Theo is tracking the growth of his plant. When he got the plant, it was 2 cm high. It grows 0.5 cm per day. Which graph represents the growth of the plant?

Answer 1

please help

Answer 2

`When he got the plant, it was 2 cm high`

this is the starting height, so that means the y intercept is 2

this is represented by the point (0,2)

Answer 3

alright so (0,2)

Answer 4

`It grows 0.5 cm per day`

the rate of change is 0.5 cm per day, so the slope is m = 0.5

since 0.5 = 1/2 this means that the graph goes up 1 unit and then over to the right 2 units

Answer 5

hopefully this makes sense?
