Answer: Baby Girl Grace grows 3/4 inch every month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Y= (y_2 - y_1)/ (x_2 - x_1)

Y= (29-26)/(16-12)

Y= (3/4)

The rate of change of height of baby girl is 0.75 inches per month.

What is Rate of change?

A value that results from dividing the change in a function of a variable by the change in the variable velocity is the rate of change in distance with respect to time.

Here, from the given table;

At 4th month,               the length of baby girl = 20 inches

at  30th month,             the length of baby girl = 39.5 inches

x₁ = 4,        y₁ = 20

x₂ = 30      y₂ = 39.5

Now,

Rate of change of height = (y₂-y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

                                           = (39.5 - 20) / (30 - 4)

                                           = 19.5 / 26

                                           = 0.75

Thus, the rate of change of height of baby girl is 0.75 inches per month.
