A researcher conducted an experiment to observe the effects of different amounts of fertilizer on plant growth. The following data shows the height (in centimeters) of plants after one month for different fertilizer amounts:
Fertilizer (grams): 0, 5, 10, 15, 20
Plant Heights (cm): 15, 18, 23, 25, 30
Using this data, answer the following question:
If the relationship between the amount of fertilizer applied and the height of the plants can be modeled by a linear equation, which of the following statements is true regarding the predicted height of a plant receiving 12 grams of fertilizer?
