2. when sarah planted her tomato plant, it grew 3 inches in
one week. after 5 weeks, the plant was 23 inches tall.
assume the relationship is linear. find and interpret the rate
of change and the initial value.

Step-by-step explanation:

the plant grows 3 inches in 1 weekso in 5 weeks, it will have grown

(5 * 3) = 15 inches...but it was 23 inchestherefore, the initial value of the plant was (23 - 15) = 8 inches

another words, when she planted the plant, it was already 8 inches tallit then grew 3 inches per week.

ur equation would be : y = 3x + 8with 3 being the slope(or rate of change) and 8 being the initial value (or the y intercept)

answer: c

step-by-step explanation: because you don't have to draw a point of intersection. couldyou give me brainliest?
