the linear model $f = 17.74m + 402$ represents the total amount of flowers, $f$, in a community park $m$ minutes since volunteers started planting. based on the linear model, approximately how many total flowers are expected to be planted after 17 minutes?
a 704 flowers
b 101 flowers
c 402 flowers
d 437 flowers

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute m=17 into model

$f = 17.74(17) + 402$

Step2: Calculate the product term

$17.74 \times 17 = 301.58$

Step3: Sum to find total flowers

$f = 301.58 + 402$
