Answer

5.20 < 5.30 < 5.50 < 5.92

Plant D < Plant B < Plant C < Plant D

Step-by-step explanation

The question asks us to list the plants in ascending order.

Plant A - √35 in.

Plant B - 5.3 in.

Plant C - 5 and (1/2) in.

Plant D - 5 and (1/5) in.

The solution is to write these in decimal form

Plant A - √35 in. = 5.92 in.

Plant B - 5.3 in. = 5.30 in.

Plant C - 5 and (1/2) in. = 5.50 in.

Plant D - 5 and (1/5) in. = 5.20 in.

So, arranging in ascending order

5.20 < 5.30 < 5.50 < 5.92

Plant D < Plant B < Plant C < Plant D

Hope this Helps!!!
