Female giraffes reach a height of 4.3 meters, and males reach a height of 5.5 meters. kendra created a bar diagram and wrote an equation to find the difference in the heights. bar diagram d - 5.5 = 4.3 write about the errors made by kendra

The purpose of the the bar diagram is to show the difference between the heights of female and male giraffes, in other words, the bar diagram needs to be able to show how much one value is more or less than the other value.

The height of the males can reach 5.5 meters, and the females' height will only reach 4.3 meters, therefore, we can see that the height of the males are larger than the height of the females, so the equation to find the difference in the heights should be: 5.5 - d = 4.3 (or any other way around).

From that, we know that the height of the males is d meters more than the height of females or the height of the females is d meters less than the height of the males.

*hope this help you
