My last comment I calculated wrong so I deleted it, but I don't think your formula can work... the 2nd question would be 4*2.5+10=20. I can't get the first one to work, but after you get t=0 H=10 you can use the pattern 2.5t+H'=H where H'=H at t-1.
i know my formula doesn't work, but I don't know what one does. That one works. But this is in an 8th grade reform math book...I don't think it should be that complicated.

ReplyDeleteI used statistics (duh) and it...
ReplyDelete1.25*t^2+1.25*t+10=H
Thanks regression!
