Bean sprouts grow very quickly. A bean sprout has grown to a height of 5 millimetrs. Tomorrow it will be 14 millimeters tall, the next day it will be 23 millimeters tall, and on the next day it will be 32 millimeters tall.
A(n) = 5 + (n - 1) 9
A(n) = 14 + (n - 1)9
A(n) = 5 - (n - 1)9
A(n) = 9n
A(n) = 9 + (n + 1)5
The correct equation to represent the growth of the bean sprout is A(n) = 5 + (n - 1)9.
is this correct
Yes, the equation A(n) = 5 + (n - 1)9 is correct to represent the growth of the bean sprout.
Part 2) How tall will the bean sprout be in 12 days? (1 point)
Responses
104 millimeters
104 millimeters
74 millimeters
74 millimeters
94 millimeters
94 millimeters
113 millimeters
113 millimeters
108 millimeters
To determine the height of the bean sprout in 12 days, we can substitute n = 12 into the equation A(n) = 5 + (n - 1)9.
A(12) = 5 + (12 - 1)9
A(12) = 5 + 11 * 9
A(12) = 5 + 99
A(12) = 104
Therefore, the bean sprout will be 104 millimeters tall in 12 days.
