Atree 5 feet tall grows an average of 8 inches each year. write and graph an equation to model the tree's height h after x years

Okay my example will be for if you watched that tree for like 5 years and I can`t really put in a graph here so sorry about that

The equation is basically the original height, 5 foot, and multiply it by the number of years you`ve been watching it grow for example when you watch it for 6 years then it will be the original height of 5 foot multiplied by the number years it has been since you look at it which is 6 years. 5 * 6 = 30 so after 6 years it will grow 30 inches.
1st year: 5 foot
2nd year: 5 foot * 2 = 10 inch increase in height
3rd year: 5 foot * 3 = 15 inch increase in height
4th year: 5 foot * 4 = 20 inch increase in height
5th year: 5 foot * 5 = 25 inch increase in height
So basically the equation is 5 foot * the number of years its been = total increase in height

I hope this helps

Dm me pls mike and
