The plant will be 77 centimeters tall after 34 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A plant is already 43 centimeters tall, and it will grow one centimeter every month.The height of the plant after 34 months will be 77 cm.

Solution:

Given that current height of the plant is 43 centimeter.

Growth rate of plant is 1 cm in a month

So increase in height in 1 month = 1 cm

Similarly increase on height in $1 \times 2 month = 1 \times 2 = 2 cm$

So we can say that increase in height in “m” month = $1 \times m$ = “m” cm

After “m” months,

Total height H(m) = current height + increase in height in m months

H(m) = 43 + m

So after m=34 months

H(m)=43+34

H(m)=77 cm

Hence height of the plant after 34 months will be 77 cm.
