  4. Question: George is an avid plant lover and is concerned about the lack of daffodils that grow in his backyard. He finds the growth of the daffodils, G, is dependent on the percent of aluminum measured in the soil, x, and can be modeled by the function…. G(x)=16−4x….. Draw the graph of the growth function by plotting its G-intercept and another point.
  5. Question: What percent of aluminum in the soil must there be for the daffodils to grow only by 5 centimeters? …. Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.
