At week 5, the plant was 8 in. tall.Which equation represents Steven’s situation, where x is the number of weeks and y is the height of the plant?

1. y=8/5x+2
2. y=6/5x+2
3. y=5/8x+2
4. y=5/6x+2

y=8 inches divided by 5 weeks times (however many weeks) plus two inches that you started with so the first one is right
