Respuesta :

Answer:

he grows by 5 cm every year between 1999 and 2006

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a arithmetic progression problem with the formula;

T_n = a + (n - 1)d

We are told that In 1999 Daniel was 146 cm tall. He grew to be 176 cm by the year 2006.

Thus;

a = 146

d = 2006 - 1999 = 7

Thus;

176 = 146 + (7 - 1)d

176 - 146 = 6d

30 = 6d

d = 30/6

d = 5 cm

Thus, he grows by 5 cm every year between 1999 and 2006
