The best type of function to model the data would be a linear function since the height of the plant increases by a constant amount each year. Therefore, the equation to model the data would be:
D. Linear; y = 19x + 84.
The table shows the height of a plant over time. Which type of function best models the data? Write an equation to model the data
This is the table :
Year height (cm)
0 84
1 103
2 122
3 141
4 160
A. Quadratic; y= 84x^2 + 19
B. Exponential; y= 84 • 19^x
C. Quadratic; y = 19x^2 + 84
D. Linear; y= 19x + 84
