Which of the following uses the distributive property correctly? 1.) 3( x + 5) = 3 · x + 5
2.) 3( x + 5) = 3 · x - 3 · 5
3.) 3( x + 5) = 3 + 3 · 5
4.) 3( x + 5) = 3 · x + 3 · 5

Data for the height of a model rocket launch in the air over time are shown in the table. darryl predicted that the height of the rocket at 8 seconds would be about 93 meters. did darryl make a good prediction? yes, the data are best modeled by a quadratic function. the value of the function at 8 seconds is about 93 meters. yes, the data are best modeled by a linear function. the first differences are constant, so about 93 meters at 8 seconds is reasonable. no, the data are exponential. a better prediction is 150 meters. no, the data are best modeled by a cubic function. a better prediction is 100 meters.
