Two new skyscrapers, North and South, are being built. The height. N, in feet of the xth floor above the ground floor for thr North Tower is shown in the graph of N (x). The height, S, in feet of the xth floorabove the ground floor for the South Tower is shown on graph S (x). Dayton says that the floors of the North Tower are taller than the floors of the South Tower. He also says that the ground floor of the South Tower is taller than the ground floor of the North Tower. Analyze the graphs of N (x) and S (x) to explain whether Dayton's statements are correct.

There are 2 steaight lines , representing height an base of two buildings

Floor N > Floor S

Ground S > Ground N

Height = Ground x Floor

Then there must be some point that

Height N = Height S

this point is aprox at 2 floors

then Dayton was right
