Q. Baby Amelia's parents measure her height every month.H(t) models Amelia's height (in centimeters) when she was t months old.What does the statement H(30)=H(25)+5 mean?Choose 1 answer:(A) It took Amelia 5 months to grow from a height of 25 centimeters to a height of 30 centimeters.(B) The sum of Amelia's heights at 5 months and 25 months old is equal to her height at 30 months old.(C) When Amelia was 30 months old, she was 5 centimeters taller than when she was 25 months old.
Function H(t): Understand the meaning of the function H(t).The function H(t) represents Amelia's height in centimeters at t months old. The statement H(30)=H(25)+5 is an equation involving this function.
Left side of the equation H(30): Interpret the left side of the equation H(30).H(30) represents Amelia's height at 30 months old.
Right side of the equation H(25)+5: Interpret the right side of the equation H(25)+5.H(25) represents Amelia's height at 25 months old, and adding 5 to this height suggests an increase of 5 centimeters.
Analysis of the equation H(30)=H(25)+5: Analyze the equation H(30)=H(25)+5 as a whole.The equation states that Amelia's height at 30 months old (H(30)) is equal to her height at 25 months old (H(25)) plus an additional 5 centimeters. This means that between the ages of 25 and 30 months, Amelia grew by 5 centimeters.
