Kelly and Greta are asked to write an equation for the scenario below. “One person was able to plant 4 trees in the same amount of time that 5 people working together were able to plant 20 trees.”

The girls agree that x represents the number of people working and y represents the number of trees planted. Kelly wrote the equation y = one-fourth x, and Greta wrote the equation y = 4 x. Which person is correct, and why?
Kelly is correct; each person plants One-fourth more trees than the person before them.
Kelly is correct; 1 = one-fourth times 4 and 5 = one-fourth times 20.
Greta is correct; each person plants 4 more trees than the person before them.
Greta is correct; 4 = 4 times 1 and 20 = 4 times 5.

Data for the height of a model rocket launch in the air over time are shown in the table. darryl predicted that the height of the rocket at 8 seconds would be about 93 meters. did darryl make a good prediction? yes, the data are best modeled by a quadratic function. the value of the function at 8 seconds is about 93 meters. yes, the data are best modeled by a linear function. the first differences are constant, so about 93 meters at 8 seconds is reasonable. no, the data are exponential. a better prediction is 150 meters. no, the data are best modeled by a cubic function. a better prediction is 100 meters.
