(EXPLAIN)

Answer 1

Explanation:

we are given that the tulip is 6 inches shorter/less than the rose bush. let the height of the tulip be t. the rose bush has height 13.

so we have t being 6 less than 13. we subtract 6 from 13 and get t.

thus, we have something like this:
`t=13-6`. this simplifies to
`t=7.`
