y x 1.6 = h Because, if the height of the plant is 1.6 times its age all you have to do is multiply y by 1.6 and you'll get the height of the plant

Answer: The required equation is
h=1.6y

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a plants height is 1.6 times its age.

We are to write an equation for the situation, where h is the plants height and y is the plants age.

The given situation can be written in equation form as follows :

$h=1.6* y\\\\\Rightarrow h=1.6y.$

Thus, the required equation is
h=1.6y
