Malcolm planted two trees in his yard. One tree is 50 inches tall and grows
at a rate of 2 inches per month. The other tree is 59 inches tall and grows
at a rate of 1 inch per month. How many months will it take until both
trees are the same height?
First make an equation for first tree Y=2x+50 Then second tree Y=1x+59 Then put them equal to eachother 2x+50=1x+59 Solve by subtracting 1x and then subtracting 50 Answer= x=9 9 months
