document.write( "Question 977822: Your mother planted a palm tree in the back yard of your house several years ago. Initially it was 200 centimeters high and its height increased by 30 centimeters each year. Let's let H be the height of the tree in centimeters after growing for t years.
\n" ); document.write( "Is H a linear function or an exponential function? \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This function is exponential because H always increases as t increases.
\n" ); document.write( "This function is exponential because H increases by a factor of 30 each time t increases by 1.
\n" ); document.write( "This function is linear because H increases by 30 each time t increases by 1.
\n" ); document.write( "This function is linear because H increases by 200 each time t increases by 1. \n" ); document.write( "
