DeShaun noticed that Plant B had grown very differently
than Plant A. He made another table to show the change in
height of Plant B over the five days:

Was
there a time when Plant B's rate
of growth was decreasing? What about when its rate

Is it
possible for Plant B's rate of growth to be decreasing,
while the plant itself is growing taller? How?
