Acayenne pepper plant's height when purchased was 3 inches. one week later, the plant 's height was exactly 4.3 inches. a bell pepper plant was also purchased at a height of 3 inches. its height, h, after x weeks of growth is represented by h = 1.3x + 3. assuming both plants continue to grow at a constant rate, which statement best compares the rate of change per week of the pepper plants?

a) 3 > 1.3
b) 4.3 > 3
c) 1.3 = 1.3
d) 3 = 3

  C)  1.3 = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The cayenne pepper plant grew from 3 inches to 4.3 inches in one week, a rate of 1.3 inches per week.

The bell pepper plant's growth is described by a formula that has 1.3 as the number of inches of height gained each week.

The rates of growth of the two plants are 1.3 and 1.3 inches per week. A suitable comparison is ...

  1.3 = 1.3

121 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is the height multiplied by the base divided by 2. Since this is a right triangle, you can simply use the two legs for this. The area of this triangle is therefore:
