(HELP ON TIMED TEST) Assume you have collected data pairs (x, y) on a certain variety of tree. x is the number of weeks since the tree was planted and y is the height of the tree
in inches. A plot of the data points with the best-fit line is given below. What is
the numerical value of the height as predicted by the best-fit line for an age of
20 weeks?

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
