Answer:

Part A: 15.55

Part B: 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The giraffe is already 14.29 so when you add the length of its tongue (equation 14.29 + 1.26) then that would equal 15.55

Part B:

The giraffe is trying to eat some leaves that are 16 feet above the ground so you would subtract 16 - 15.55 to see how much farther it needs to reach, so the answer is 0.45.

(This is what I got, I apologize if I get this wrong. If I messed up on something, someone please correct me, thank you and have a nice day!)

Answer:

Part A:   It can reach 15.55 feet.

Part B:   Need to reach 0.45 feet farther to get to the leaves of a 16 feet tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

giraffe + tongue = reach

      14.29 + 1.26 = 15.55

tree height - giraffe reach = extra distance

16 - 15.55 = 0.45 feet
