Answer:

The f(x) population will never be more than the g(x) population with the given equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the fact that we have 7x in the g(x) equation and only 3x in the f(x) equation, then we know that every month, the g(x) gets larger than the f(x) by 4. Therefore, the f(x) equation will never catch the g(x) equation.
