Will rate brainliest compare the data for the growth of two plant samples. how can you determine which data set is linear? a) sample b has linear data because it increases as a slower rate. eliminate b) sample a has linear data because it has a constant rate of change. c) neither sample has linear data because the samples start at different heights. d) both samples have linear data because as x increases, y increases. growth of plant sample a time (days) height (in.) 1 6 2 12 3 18 4 24 5 30 growth of plant sample b time (days) height (in.) 1 2 2 5 3 10 4 17 5 26
