There were two trees growing from seeds in a backyard. one tree grew at a rate of 1//2 of a foot every 2 years. the other grew 4 inches every 3 years. in 12 years, what will the difference between the heights of the two trees be in inches? ? plzz i will give you 299 points

The height between the two trees will be 1.67 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you take the 1/2 have and times it by 6 because it is every two years that the tree grows 1/2 of a foot. So it will be 3 feet. The other tree grew 4 inches in 3 years so it will be 16 inches you will then have to make the 16 inches into feet to get 1 1/3. You will then minus the 3 feet and the 1 1/3 to get 5/3 or 1.67 feet.

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
