Answer:
[tex]\frac{13}{6}[/tex]inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Growth of A = [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches
Growth of B = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] inches
Growth of C = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] inches
Unknown:
Total growth for the three trees = ?
Solution:
The total growth;
Total growth = Growth of A + Growth of B + Growth of C
Total growth = [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] + ([tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ) + [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Total growth = [tex]\frac{21 - 3 + 8}{12}[/tex]
Total growth = [tex]\frac{26}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13}{6}[/tex]inches
