a small tree was planted at a height of 7 feet. the tree has been planted for 14 month, and is now 54.6 feet tall. which equation could be used to find X, the average number of feet the tree grow in each month?
-------
f(0) = 7 is the starting point
f(14) = 54.6
-----
average growth per month = slope = 54.6/14 = 3.9
------
Equation:
f(x) = 3.9x + 7
