Answer:

1.The slope intercept- form of the function is:

y = x -2

2.The predicted length of the vine after 53 days is 51 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the [tex]\frac{change in length}{change in days}[/tex]  

In the table, every time that the length increased by 5, the days also increased by 5.  5/5 = 1

Now we have to find the y-intercept, we can use the slope and one of the points that we know to do this.  Let's use the first point (5,3). This is in the form (x,y).

y = mx + b

3 = (1)(5) + b

3 = 5 + b   Subtract both sides by 5

-2 = b  Now we can write the equation

y = mx + b

y = x -2.  Plug 53 in for x and you will find your second answer.

y = 53 - 2

y = 51

1. The function's slope intercept form is y = x -2.

2. The vine should be 51 cm long in length after 53 days.

Determining the Slope Intercept Form:

The slope is given as,

m = (Change in length) / (Change in days)

In the table, it can be seen that,

The days climbed by 5 for every 5 that the length did as well [10-5 = 8-3 = 5].

∴ Slope, m =5/5 = 1

We may use the slope and one of the points we are familiar with to help us find the y-intercept. Utilizing the first point (5,3), this is how it looks for the point (x, y),

y = mx + c ..... (1)

3 = (1)(5) + c

3 = 5 + c

Subtract 5 from both sides to get c.

c = -2

Hence, from (1), the slope intercept form is given as,

y = x - 2 ...... (2)

Predicting the Vine Length:

Since x represents the number of days, put x = 53 in equation (2) to predict the vine length after 53 days.

y = (53) -2

y = 51 cm

Thus, the length of vine after 53 days would be 51 cm.
