Ascientist conducting an experiment creates a table to record the growth of two plants. the scientist uses the equations below to represent the growth of the plants, where w is the number of weeks of plant growth and h is the height of the plant in inches.

plant 1: 1.75 + 1/2w = h
plant 2: 1.75 + 3/4w =h

which describes the difference in the heights of the two plants in week 5?
plant 1 is 1.25 inches taller than plant 2.
plant 2 is 1.25 inches taller than plant 1.
plant 1 is 1.75 inches taller than plant 2.
each plant is 1.75 inches tall.

 The correct option is (B) Plant 2 is 1.25 inches taller than Plant 1.

Step-by-step explanation: The equations representing the growth of the plants are given by

where, 'w' represents the number of weeks of plant growth and 'h' represents the height of the plant in inches.

We are to select the correct statement describes the difference in the heights of the two plants in week 5.

Substituting w = 5 in both the equations above, we have

and

Therefore, the difference between the heights of the plants is

Thus, plant 2 is 1.25 inches taller than plant 1.

Option (B) is correct.

the correct answer is 45x

9×5=45 then add the x

b 1: 45 am

step-by-step explanation:

its that because if it was in the pm it would be 1345
