Help me pls please pretty please help me

Answer 1

`3(1)/(4)` inches

Explanation:

Height of the tallest conifer =
`9(1)/(2)` inches

Height of the shortest conifer = 6 + measure of one segment on the number line

Measure of one segment on the number line =
`(6(1)/(2)-6)/(2)`

=
`((1)/(2))/(2)`

=
`(1)/(4)`

Therefore, height of the shortest conifer = 6 +
`(1)/(4)`

=
`6(1)/(4)`

Difference in tallest and shortest conifer =
`9(1)/(2)- 6(1)/(4)`

= (9 - 6) +
`((1)/(2)- (1)/(4))`

= 3 +
`(1)/(4)`

=
`3(1)/(4)` inches
