Kayla is in grade 10. She wants to have longer hair for her graduation. Her hair grows at a constant. rate. If it is 24.0 cm long today, in 30 days it will be 25.2 cm long.
* Sketch a straight line graph representing the rate at which Kayla's hair grows.
*What is the slope of the line and what ages it represent?
• What is the y-intercept and what does it mean?
• Write an equation in slope-intercept form that describes how Kayla's hair length, L, in centimeters, grows each day, d.
• Predict the length of Kayla's hair at graduation if she does not get it trimmed over the next two years.
