Try It! Class A was given a sunflower with a height of 8 centimeters that grows at a rate of 3 1/2 centimeters per week. Class B was given a sunflower with a height of 10 centimeters that grows at a rate of 3 1/4 centimeters per week. After how many weeks are the sunflowers the same height?​

Answer:

8 Weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's collect the given data:

• Class A:

- Starts at 8 cm

- grows at 3.5 cm/week

• Class B:

- Starts at 10cm

- grows at 3.25 cm/week

Class B's plant starts out 2 cm taller and Class A's plant grows 1/4 cm faster. So, to find when these two will be at an equal height, divide 2 cm by 1/4.

2 ÷ 1/4 =

2 × 4/1 =

2 × 4 =

8

It will take 8 weeks for the plants to be at an equal height.
