Linear Weight Increase in Hens Over 50 Days Experiment

Explore an experimental diet for hens showing a linear weight increase over 50 days. Starting at 150g, after 30 days, the average mass reaches 690g. Get equation, graph, and project future weights. Use this data to predict when hens reach 1kg for a supermarket order.

  2. A new experimental diet for hens determines that the average weight (grams) of a hen can increase in a linear fashion over a period of 50 days. The average mass of a hen starting the diet is 150 grams. After 30 days the average mass is 690 grams. Draw a graph and give the equation for this situation.
