I think he means meters.
anyways the plant is initially 12 centimeters tall, so that is our y-intercept
It grows .5 cm a day, so that is our slope.
We want to find when the zucchini plant is .195 meters tall, or 19.5 cm
So if y=.5x+12. 
You want to plug in 19.5 for y to determine how many days (x) it will take for the plant to reach 19.5 cm
