Question
Questions 31 and 32 refer to the following information
The length C(t), in inches, of a channel catfish in an Iowa river t years after the first year of life can be approximated by the linear function C. Some values of C(t) are given in the table above.
F(t) = 3t + 4
The length F(t), in inches, of a flathead catfish in the same Iowa river t years after the first year of life can be approximated by the linear function F, defined by the equation above.
Which of the following equations could define C as a function of t?
- C(t) = 2.5t + 6
The correct answer is: C(t) = 2.5t + 6
c(t) = mx + b
m = 
y = 
x + b substitute (1,8.5)
8.5 = 2.5 + b
b = 6
c(t) = y = t + 6 = 2.5t + 6
