6.) The slope of the tangent at a specific point in graph 1 is equal to the growth rate value on the bottom graph.

8.) Cole's change in height from year 5 to 10 was 0.078 meters per year, which meant he grew 7.8 centimeters per year according to the graph.

9.) Since the unit for second graph is year * meters/year, the years cancel out, leaving only meters; therefore, the shaded area in graph two represents the probable height grown for the corresponding year.

10.) According tot the graph, the the generalization in the introduction is not correct. In reality, the test subject grew most rapidly during his early baby years. Then, the growth rate generally decreased as he got older, years increase.
