Assumptions1. The tree grows at a constant rate. . The tree grew.62 feet over a four-year period.

STEP 2

We need to find the rate of growth per year. We can do this by dividing the total growth by the number of years.
$Rate\, of\, growth\, per\, year = Total\, growth / Number\, of\, years$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the total growth and the number of years to calculate the rate of growth per year.
$Rate\, of\, growth\, per\, year =2.62\, feet /\, years$

STEP 4

Calculate the rate of growth per year.
$Rate\, of\, growth\, per\, year =2.62\, feet /4\, years =0.655\, feet/year$ The tree grows0.655 feet each year.
