Della bought a tree seedling that was 2 1/4 feet tall. During the first year, it grew 1 1/6 feet. After two years, it was 5 feet tall. How much did the seedling grow during the second year? plzz helpp asap

1  7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/4 + 1 1/6 = 3 5/12 because 2 1/4 = 27/12 and 7/6 = 14/12

27/12 + 14/12 = 41/12 = 3 5/12

x  + 3 5/12 = 5

x =  5 - 3 5/12;   you can make 5 into 4 12/12

x = 1  7/12

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
