Question

Jason is studying a new plant food for a science experiment. The plant is 14 cm tall when the experiment begins and grows at a rate of 1.5 cm per week. What will the height of the plant be at the beginning of the 12th week?

Answer 1

1.5 cm multiplied by 12 is 18. Add 18 to 14 and you get 32 cm. Hope this helped.

Answer 2

Take 1.5 and multiply it by 12 (Number of weeks) giving us 18. So now we just need to add 18 to 14 and we get 32.
