      Let’s analyze the situation to determine the true statements.

      – The slope represents the rate of change in this context, which is the amount the plant grows each week. Here, the plant grows 1 3/4 inches per week.

      – The y-intercept refers to the initial height of the tomato plant at week zero, which is 2 3/8 inches.

      Based on this understanding, the true statements are:

      – A. The slope is 1 3/4. (True, as this is the weekly growth)

      – D. The slope is the rate of change. (True, since the slope represents how much the plant grows per week)

      – E. The y-intercept is 2 3/8. (True, as this is the starting height of the plant)

      The incorrect options are:

      – B. The slope is 1/4. (False, the slope is 1 3/4)

      – C. The y-intercept is 1 3/4. (False, the y-intercept is 2 3/8)

      – F. The slope is 2 3/8. (False, that is the initial height, not the slope)

      So, the correct true statements are A, D, and E. Great job working through this! If you have more questions or need further clarification, feel free
