A biologist has been observing a tree’s height. 10 months into the observation, the tree was 15.1 feet tall. 18 months into the observation, the tree was 17.18 feet tall.
Let x be the number of months passed since the observations started, and let y be the tree’s height at that time, in feet. Use a linear equation to model the tree’s height as the number of months pass.
This line’s slope-intercept equation is _______.
27 months after the observations started, the tree would be
______ feet in height
_______ months after the observation started, the tree would be 26.02 feet tall.
