Question

The height of the plant is given by the equation h = 0.50 +4. Rewrite this as a function rule where f(x) is the height in centimeters and X is the time in days. Use the rule to complete the table and then use the drawing tools to create the graph representing this relationship.x | f(x)———-0 |1 |2 |3 |4 |5 |6 |

Answer 1

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 0.5d + 4

if f(x) = h and d = x

The formula becomes:

f(x) = 0.5x + 4

when x = 0

f(x) = 0.5(0) + 4 = 0 +4

f(x) = 4

when x = 1

f(x) = 0.5(1) + 4 = 0.5 +4

f(x) = 4.5

when x = 2

f(x) = 0.5(2) + 4 = 1 +4

f(x) = 5

when x = 3

f(x) = 0.5(3) + 4 = 1.5 +4

f(x) = 5.5

when x = 4

f(x) = 0.5(4) + 4 = 2 +4

f(x) = 6

when x = 5

f(x) = 0.5(5) + 4 = 2.5 +4

f(x) = 6.5

when x = 6

f(x) = 0.5(6) + 4 = 3 +4

f(x) = 7

plotting the graph:

Note: each line on the y axis represent 0.5 in between the whole numbers on the axis

After 4, the next line represent
