Jolene purchased a rubber tree that has three leaves on it. After nurturing it for several months, she notices that the tree grows one new leaf every month. The expression x+y represents the total number of leaves after y months. What is x?

Given that the tree starts with three leaves, we can say that the initial value of x is 3.

sorry to say this but bot your wrong.

I apologize for the mistake.

Since the tree grows one new leaf every month, the value of x would still be 3, as it represents the initial number of leaves.
