Answer:

answer C: 140 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the water rises 14cm in 2 seconds, 21cm in 3 seconds etc... Then the water rises at 7cm per second. Multiply this by 20 seconds and you get 140cm

By find how high the water would be after 20 seconds, you would find out much height is increasing each second.

21 - 4 = 7

28 - 21 = 7

35 - 35 = 7, and so forth.

So, we know that 7 cm is increasing each second. You would just add 7 to the height for each second.

2 --> 14

3 --> 21

4 --> 28

5 --> 35

6 --> 42

7 --> 49

8 --> 56

9 --> 63

10 --> 70

11 --> 77

12 --> 84

13 --> 91

14 --> 98

15 --> 105

16 --> 112

17 --> 119

18 --> 126

19 --> 133

20 --> 140

Thus, after 20 seconds, the water's height would be c) 140 cm.
