Composition of the Atmosphere The Earth is surrounded by air—a mixture of various gases that reaches up to a height of many kilometers. This envelope of air makes up our atmosphere. It is held in place by the Earth’s gravity. Almost all the atmosphere (97 percent) lies within 30 km (19 mi) of the Earth’s surface. The upper limit of the atmosphere is at a height of approximately 10‚000 km (about 6000 mi) above the Earth’s surface—a distance that is nearly as large as Earth’s diameter. The proportion

These are the functions which we have to evaluate this week. fx=2x+3 gx=x2-3 hx=7-x3 We have been asked to compute(f-h)(4). So we can evaluate each separately and then subtract. f-h4=f4-h(4) f4=24+3 =8+3=11 f4=11 h4=7-43 =33=1 h4=1 This is our final answer. f-h4=11-1=10 Next we are to compare two pairs of the functions
