Answer 1

Greetings!

Answer:

`(19)/(12)` feet

Explanation:

First, we need to find the height after one year:

2.25 + 1 1/6 =
`(41)/(12)`

Now to find the amount in the second year, we can subtract the above amount from 5:

5 -
`(41)/(12)` =
`(19)/(12)`

So in the second year it grew
`(19)/(12)` feet

Hope this helps!
