The statement H(30) = H(25) + 5 means that, "when Amelia was 30 months old, she was 5 centimeters taller than when she was 25 months old"

Solution:

Given that,

Baby Amelia's parents measure her height every month

It is given that H(t) models Amelia's height (in centimeters) when she was "t" months old

Given statement is H(30) = H(25) + 5

So, we can say that H(30) = Amelia's height when she was 30 months old

H(25) = Amelia's height when she was 25 months old

So H(30) = H(25) + 5 means that,

Height of Amelia when she was 30 months old is 5 centimeter more than Amelia height when she was 25 years old

Or we can say that,

When Amelia was 30 months old, she was 5 centimeters taller than when she was 25 months old
