Question

A plant is already 12.00 meters tall, and it will grow 25 centimeters every month. The plant's height, H (in meters), after x months is given by the followingfunctionH(X) - 12.00 +0.25xWhat is the plant's height after 40 months?

Answer 1

Given:

The equation for the height of plant after x months is H(x) = 12.00 + 0.25x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 40 for x in the equation to determine the height of plant after 40 months.

`\begin{gathered} H(40)=12.00+0.25\cdot40 \\ =12.00+10.00 \\ =22.00 \end{gathered}`

So height of plant after 40 months is 22.00 meters.

Answer: 22.00 meters
