Question

A plant is already 42 centimeters tall, and it will grow one centimeter every month. Let h be the plant's height (in centimeters) after m months. Write an equation relating h to m. Then use this equation to find the plant's height after 26 months.

Answer 1

h = 42 + m

In 26 months, it will be at 68 centimeters

Answer 2

equation: h=42+1m

after 26 months: 68 inches tall

Explanation:

h=42+1m

h=42+1(26)

h=42+26

h=68
