Jamie is x inches tall. If Jamie grows 4 inches to become 54 inches tall, how tall was Jamie? Which equation shows how to solve this?(1 point)

Responses

x + 12 = 54
x + 12 = 54

x * 4 = 64
x * 4 = 64

50 + x = 4
50 + x = 4

x + 4 = 54
x + 4 = 54

The equation that shows how to solve for Jamie's original height \( x \) is:

\( x + 4 = 54 \)

This equation states that if Jamie's original height \( x \) is increased by 4 inches, the result is 54 inches.
