we dont know what is the two numbers so let us assume that one is x and other is y

so the sum of two numbers will be x+y which is equal to 51

x+y=51

and their difference is 9

x-y=9

so now we have two equations we can solve this by elimination method.

x+y=51 x-y=9

we know that we have -y and +y which is same value with opposite sign so we can cancel it and x+x will be 2x and 51+9=60

2x=60 x=30

we can plug x=30 in any one of the equations

x+y=51 30+y=51 y=21

x=30,  y=21

Analyze the graph of the function f(x) to complete the statement.
ozzi

f(x) is the same as y, so we can say y = f(x)

Writing f(x) < 0 means we want to find when y < 0.

Visually, we are looking at the graph when the curve is below the horizontal x axis.

This is the portion in red that I have marked in the diagram (see attached image below). I apologize for the numbers being blurry.

The left red portion is from negative infinity to -3. In terms of a compound inequality we write -\infty < x < -3 which in interval notation is (-\infty, -3). The curved parenthesis tells the reader to exclude both endpoints.

The right red portion is from x = -1.1 to x = 0.9, excluding both endpoints. So we say -1.1 < x < 0.9 which becomes the interval notation (-1.1, 0.9). This is not ordered pair notation even though it looks identical to it.

-------------

<h3>Answer in interval notation:  (-\infty, -3) \cup (-1.1, 0.9)</h3>

The "U" means "set union" which glues together the two separate intervals. Basically it's saying "x is either in the interval (-infinity, -3) or it is in the interval (-1.1, 0.9)"

Carey earns c hourly
Anderson earns $6 hourly which is also 1+ c/2
So, 6=1+c/2
      12=2+c
c=$10
