C) Participation in the fall league is increasing more than twice as fast as participation in the spring league.
D) Participation in the fall league is increasing at a slightly faster rate than participation in the spring league.

Answer 1

A) Participation in the spring league is increasing more than twice as fast as participation in the fall league.

this is what i believe is the answer. Parcipatation raises by 11 for spring and 3 for fall, and 11 is more than twice 3. i hope this helps! :D

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Table is given as

Year                    2010           2011            2012          2013    

Spring league      68               79              90              101  

Fall league           145             148             151              154

Now as per given table we will analyze each option given

A). Difference in spring league participation increasing every year = 79-68 = 11

Difference in Fall league increasing every year = 148-145 = 3

Therefore option A is true because $\frac{11}{3}>3$ Spring league is increasing more than twice as fast as fall league.

B). This option is not true because participation in the spring league is increasing nearly 4 times of Fall league.

C) False. Spring league participation is more than fall league.

D) False. Same as option C because spring league participation is more than fall league.
