Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height (the dependent variable) be h.

Let the independent variable (x) be y

h = 8y + 10

So at birth, these creatures are 10 cm long. At each birthday, they are another 8 cm.

Take the fifth year which is where the table begins.

y= 8*5 + 10

y = 40 + 10

y = 50 cm which is exactly what you got.
