She can plant 34 plants in all. If you multiply 34 and 2 you will get 34 and I think that is the answer.

Answer:

8 ways

Explanation:

The question was mistyped. The correct version of it is:

Ms. Hernandez has 17 tomato plants that she wants to plant in rows. She will put 2 plants in some rows and 1 plant in the others. How many different ways can she plant the tomato plants?

To answer this question we have to find how many rows of 1 plant and 2 plants can she plant.

Rows with 2 plants Rows with 1 plant

1 17 - 1*2 = 15

2 17 - 2*2 = 13

3 17 - 3*2 = 11

4 17 - 4*2 = 9

5 17 - 5*2 = 7

6 17 - 6*2 = 5

7 17 - 7*2 = 3

8 17 - 8*2 = 1

That makes 8 different configurations.
