Question

A plant is already 42 centimeters tall, and it will grow one centimeter every month. The plant's height, H (in centimeters), after m months is given by the following.

=H+42m
What is the plant's height after 37 months?

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the plant's height after 37 months, we can substitute m = 37 into the given formula:

H = 42 + 1m

H = 42 + 1(37)

H = 42 + 37

H = 79

Therefore, the plant's height after 37 months will be 79 centimeters.

Answer 2

We can use the given formula to find the plant's height, H, after 37 months:

H = 42 + 1m (where m is the number of months)

So when m = 37 (after 37 months), we have:

H = 42 + 1(37)

H = 42 + 37

H = 79

Therefore, the plant's height after 37 months will be 79 centimeters
