Answer:

63 cm

Explanation:

Given,

The growth in first week = 29 cm

Since, the next week the growth is 5 centimeters more than the previous week,

So, the growth in second week = growth in first week + 5

= 29 + 5

= 34 cm

Hence, the total growth in 2 weeks = growth in first week + growth in second week

= 29 + 34

= 63 cm
