Each year, Britney goes in for an annual physical. As part of the physical, the doctor measures Britney's height. The function f(x) gives Britney's height in feet when she is x years old.

Question

What does f(5)>f(4) tell you?

Answer 1

The notation \( f(5) > f(4) \) indicates that Britney's height at age 5 is greater than her height at age 4. This tells you that between the ages of 4 and 5, Britney has grown taller. In other words, it reflects a positive change in her height during that one-year period, indicating that she is still growing as a child.
