Activity Trisha buys two plants for her office. One plant is taller than the other, but she wants both plants to be the same height. So, she decides to take better care of the shorter plant, hoping that it will catch up with the taller one. The tables below show the plants’ heights when Trisha bought them and two weeks later. In this activity, you will determine how long it will take for the two plants to be the same height. Plant A Plant B Weeks Height (inches) Weeks Height (inches) 0 6 0 4 2 8 2 7 Part A To graph the two linear relationships, you need to know which variable is the independent variable, x, and which is the dependent variable, y. Of the two variables, weeks and height, which is the independent variable and which is the dependent? Explain your answer.
