Flowers using fertilizer A have a height represented by f(x)= 1.2^x-1;  flowers using fertilizer B have a heat represented by f(x)= 0.08x^2, where X represents the number of months, and Y represents the height and feet. 

 

To the nearest 10th, approximately when will the flowers heights using fertilizer B exceed those using fertilizer A? Explain 

Ryan things flowers using fertilizer B will have heights that continue to exceed those using fertilizer A after five months. explain why Ryan  is incorrect

to the nearest 10th, approximately when will the Heights the flowers using fertilizer A exceed the heights of the flowers using fertilizer B after the first five months? Explain

x     Fertilizer A       Fertilizer B

1         0.2                       0.08

2         0.44                    0.32

3        0.728                   0.72
