An elephant calf born at the san diego zoo weighs 205 pounds at birth. it is expected to gain 120 pounds per month during it's first year. which equation explains the weight of the elephant as a function of the age of the elephant?

question 18 options:

w(m) = 205m + 120

w(m) = -205m + 120

w(m) = 120m + 205

w(m) = 120m - 205

38.6°

step-by-step explanation:

resultant is 10 pound

smaller force = 8 pound

angle formed = tan⁻¹(

                        =tan⁻¹(

                          =tan⁻¹(0.8)

                        =38.6°

answer: c

substitute in the values.

for a:

f(0) = 0 + 9

f(0) = 9

a is a solution.

for b:

f(7) = 14 + 9

f(7) = 23

b is a solution.

for c:

f (3) = 6 + 9

f(3) = 15

c is not a solution. it's supposed to be 14.

for d:

f(2) = 4 + 9

f(2)= 13

d is a solution.
