Question

Last month , Margo bought a tree that grows 2.5 cm a day. It was 5 cm tall when she bought it and now it is 65 cm tall. Write an equation to determine the number of days Margo has owned the plant

Answer 1

Answer:

Here we just have to find the no. of days Margo owned the tree. So, we would multiply 5 by x (no.of days we determined) to get the actual no.of days

Step-by-step explanation:

tree's initial height = 5cm

tree's present height = 65cm

let the no. of days be 'x'

So, no. of days :-

5x = 65cm

x = 65 ÷ 5

x = 13 days

Therefore, Margo had owned the tree for 13 days
