Question

7) The table below is a farmer's recording of sunflower blooms based on the amount of seeds planted in his garden.Seeds Planted24364860Blooms9182736Which of the functions below models the number of sunflowers that bloomed, given the number of seeds planted?ОАf(x) =3Ов3X4-X + 9OD2x-9

Answer 1

Flowers that bloom = y

number of seed planted = x

Therefore,

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ m=(18-9)/(36-24)=(9)/(12)=(3)/(4) \\ 9=(3)/(4)*24+b \\ 9-18=b \\ b=-9 \\ y=(3)/(4)x-9 \end{gathered}`

The answer is D.
