In the duration of 5 years, the tree grows 15 inches each year

Calculating the rate of growth

From the question, we are to determine how many inches the tree grows each year

First, we will calculate the difference in height

Initial height = 56 inches

Final height = 10 feet 11 inches = 131 inches

Difference in height = 131 inches - 56 inches

Difference in height = 75 inches

Now, for the rate at which the tree grows each year,

The rate at which the tree grows each year = 75 inches / 5 year

The rate at which the tree grows each year = 15 inches/year

Hence, the tree grows 15 inches each year.
