Answer:
12 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the heights of the plants be y
and the number of weeks be x
Plant A
y=3x+8.5--------------1
Plant B
y=2.5x+14.5----------2
Required
The number of weeks taken for both plants to have the same height
,equate the two expressions above
3x+8.5=2.5x+14.5
3x-2.5x=14.5-8.5
0.5x= 6
divide both sides by 0.5
x= 6/0.5
x= 12 weeks
40x7=280
Your answer is $280
Hope this helped :D

To find the total amount
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A total amount?
P present value 1050
R interest rate 0.06
T time 25 years
A=1,050×(1+0.06)^(25)=4,506.46
Interest amount
I=A-p
I=4,506.46−1,050
I=3,456.46
