Problema Solution

A certain house plant growth, G, in inches, varies directly as the number of weeks it has been growing, W.

a)Write an equation that express this relationship.

B)This houseplant grows at arate of about 0.49in per week. Substitute 0.49 for K, the constant of variatrion, in the equation in part (a) and write the equation for the houseplants growth.

c)Substitute 52 for W to determine the house plant's growth at the end of one 1 year if it had be pruned.

a)Write an equation for the houseplants growth using K for the constant of varitation._________.

Answer provided by our tutors

(a) G = K*W, K is constant

(b) K = 0.49

So G= 0.49W

(c)

W = 52 weeks = 1 yr

G = 0.49*52 = 25.48 in

(d)

G = K*W, K is constant
