A vine maple grows fast when it is planted under the cover of cedar trees. One month after it is planted it has grown 9 inches, and after eight weeks it had grown 14 inches. Write an equation that models the growth, in inches, of the vine maple as a function of time, in weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Using y = mx+c

m=

m=

m=

c=y-intercept

The question says that at 8 weeks the maple had grown 14 inches

By using y=mx+c we can find the y-intercept using one of the points as the x and y values and by using the slope

14=10+c

14-10=10+c-10

4=c

y-intercept = 4

Therefore the full equation is

unpaid balance is : $149.99-$50 = $99.99 new balance = 149.99+2.62-50 = $102.61 finance charge = 99.99- 0.21/12= $1.75 new balance = 99.99+1.75 = $101.74 average daily balance method average daily balance= 3399.70/30 = $113.32 finance charge = $ 0.21/12ă—113.32 = $1.98 new balance = $149.99-50+1.98 = $101.97
