Drag each statement to show whether it is true, based on the graph.
The stalk grew at a rate of 6.25 inches per week.
Each bag can hold 25 cornstalks.
The stalk grew to a height of 25 inches in 4 weeks.
The quotient 25/4 equals the growth rate of the stalk in inches per week.
In 25 weeks, the stalk grew to a height of 4 inches.
To evaluate the statements based on the graph of the stalk’s growth, let’s look at each statement one by one:
1. The stalk grew at a rate of 6.25 inches per week.
– If the graph shows that after 4 weeks the height is 25 inches, the growth rate would be calculated as 25 inches divided by 4 weeks, which is 6.25 inches per week. This is true.
2. Each bag can hold 25 cornstalks.
– This statement seems to be a fact about capacity rather than something we can verify with the graph. If this is stated in your context, we will assume it’s true.
3. The stalk grew to a height of 25 inches in 4 weeks.
– If the graph indicates that the height of the stalk is 25 inches after 4 weeks, then this is true.
4. The quotient 25/4 equals the growth rate of the stalk in inches per week.
– Since we previously calculated that 25 inches over 4 weeks gives a growth rate of 6.25 inches per week, and 25 divided by 4 equals 6.25, this is true.
5. In 25 weeks, the stalk grew to a height of 4 inches.
– If the growth rate is 6.25 inches per week,
