Answer:

Yes, she is correct.

Explanation:

Given,

The depth she made in the ground for the plant = [tex]6\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches,

Also, the height of the plant above the ground = 3.25 inches,

Hence, the total height of the plant = depth she made + height of the plant above the ground

[tex]=6\frac{7}{8}+3.25[/tex]

That is, the given expression is correct.
