Jill planted 2 flowers in her garden. The first flower is 2 inches tall and it is growing 2.25 inches each week. The second plant is 5.75 inches tall, and it is growing 1.5 inches each week. How many weeks will it be until the two plants are the same height?

it will take 5 weeks for both trees to be the sane height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of weeks it will take the two plants to be the same height.

The first flower is 2 inches tall and it is growing 2.25 inches each week. This means that in x weeks, the height of the flower would be

2 + 2.25x

The second plant is 5.75 inches tall, and it is growing 1.5 inches each week. This means that in x weeks, the height of the flower would be

5.75 + 1.5x

For both flowers to be the same height, the number of weeks would be

2 + 2.25x = 5.75 + 1.5x

2.25x - 1.5x = 5.75 - 2

0.75x = 3.75

x = 3.75/0.75

x = 5

1/800 is the right answer
