Solution

The equation relating H (height of the plant) to M (months) is:

H = 41 + M

This equation represents the initial height of the plant (41 cm) plus the growth of the plant each month (1 cm per month).

To find the plant's height after 12 months, substitute M = 12 into the equation:

H = 41 + 12 H = 53

So, the plant will be 53 centimeters tall after 12 months.
