When writing an equation you should always look at the problem and try to figure out what it is asking you to solve for. In this case you would be solving for the plants height (H). That will be one side of our equation.
<u>H=???</u>
Now we must think about how we would solve for the height. The plant grows 1 centimeter each month so we will put M on the other side. But since it is we will add 14 to that.
