Agardener is planting two types of trees: •tree a is 36 inches tall and grows at a rate of 12 inches per year. •tree b is 48 inches tall and grows at a rate of 10 inches per year. which equation can be used to find x, the number years it will take for these trees to be the same height? a) 12 + 10 = 36x + 48x b) 12x + 10x = 36 + 48 c) 12x + 36 = 10x + 48 d) 12 + 36x = 10 + 48x

c) 12x + 36 = 10x + 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Height of tree A = 36 inches

Growth rate of tree A = 12 inches per year.

Height of tree B = 48 inches

Growth rate of tree B = 10 inches per year.

If x is the number of years after which the tree will have same height.

Height of tree A in x years =

Height of tree B in x years =

Equating these equation,

Hence, option c) represents the correct equation such that the tress will have same height in x years.
