A student claims that a plant's height is directly proportional to the number of weeks after it was bought because the plant keeps growing. Which observation best disproves the claim?

  1. The plant is measured in centimetres rather than metres.
  2. The number of weeks can be written as whole numbers.
  3. The plant receives the same amount of water each week.
  4. The plant already has positive height at week zero.Respuesta correcta

Explicación

The plant can have a positive height at week zero, so its height-versus-time graph need not pass through the origin and its growth rate may also change. Merely observing continued growth is not enough, because increasing relationships can fail the constant-ratio test.
