A basketball hoop is 10 1/24 feet high. Mark is 5 11/24 feet tall.
What is the distance from the hoop to the top of Mark's head?

110/24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

A basketball hoop is 10 1/24 feet high

Mark is 5 11/24 feet tall

Required

The distance from Mark's head to the top of the hoop

Step two:

the solution is the difference between the two heights

=10 1/24 - 5 11/24

let us convert the mixed fraction to simple fraction

=241/24- 131/24

LCM = 24

= 241-131/24

=110/24 feet

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
