The new height of the plant when it was last measured is [tex]\frac{2}{5}cm[/tex] tall

The initial height of the plant is 4/5 meters tall

If 1/2 meter was cut off, hence the new height of the plant will be expressed as;

[tex]N_h=\frac{4}{5} -\frac{1}{2}\\N_h=\frac{2(4)+5}{10}\\N_h=\frac{8-5}{10}\\N_h=\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Hence the new height is 3/10

If the height of the plant when last measured had grown back ​1/10​ meter, the height was last measured is expressed as [tex]\frac{3}{10}+ \frac{1}{10}= \frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Hence the height of the plant when it was last measured is [tex]\frac{2}{5}cm[/tex] tall
