Let one of the number be x
The other number will be x + 2
x + x + 2 = 15044
2x + 2 = 15044
2x = 15044 -2
2x = 15042
x = 7521
x + 2 = 7521 + 2 = 7523
The office number is 7521 and 7523
Answer:
g(x) is shifted 6 units to the left
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets try to simplify g(x) since has a few extra terms:
g(x)= 3x+12-6=3x+6
Now it is easier to compare the two functions.
We can tell that they both have the same slope, both differs on a extra term
This term tell us that the g(x) is shifted to the left (it is positive 6)
Another approach to the solution is to plot the two functions together by obtaining the crossing points with the 'y' axis and with the 'x' axis
the result is shown in the attached picture
The solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given system of equations are:
-1x + 2y = -4 -------- eqn 1
4x + 3y = 5 ------- eqn 2
We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method
<em><u>Multiply eqn 1 by 4</u></em>
4(-1x + 2y = -4)
-4x + 8y = -16 ------ eqn 3
<em><u>Add eqn 2 and eqn 3</u></em>
4x + 3y = 5
-4x + 8y = -16
( + ) --------------------
0x + 11y = -16 + 5
11y = -11
y = -1
<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>
-1x + 2(-1) = -4
-x -2 = -4
-x = -4 + 2
-x = -2
x = 2
<em><u>Check the answer:</u></em>
Substitute x = 2 and y = -1 in eqn 2
4x + 3y = 5
4(2) + 3(-1) = 5
8 - 3 = 5
5 = 5
Thus the obtained answer is correct
Thus the solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)
