Juliette buys a rosemary plant that is 12 cm and grows 1 cm per week (w). Kimberly starts one from seed but the package says it will grow 2 cm per week. How many weeks will it take for Kimberly’s plant to equal the height of Juliette’s?

12.
12cm already and in 12 week it will grow 12cm more so total 24cm in week
On other hand the seed will grow 2cm per week so in 12 week it will be 24 cm
