Answer:
here's what we know:
a + b = 72
a - b = 26
We can use the elimination method to solve this problem:
a + b = 72
a - b = 26
---------------
2a = 98
Divide both sides by 2:
a = 49
So we now have:
49 + b = 72
and:
49 - b = 26
Subtract 49 from both sides:
b = 23
and
-b = -23 (multiply both sides by -1) → b = 23

Answer:
The function is increasing from x = 0 to x = 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
A <u>function</u> is increasing when the <u>y-value increases</u> as the <u>x-value increases</u>.
A <u>function</u> is decreasing when the <u>y-value decreases</u> as the <u>x-value increases</u>.
From x = -2 to x = -1 the function is decreasing as the y-value decreases as the x-value increases:
- x-value -2 to -1 → increase
- y-value 2 to 0 → decrease
From x = -1 to x = 0 the function is increasing as the y-value increases as the x-value increase:
- x-value -1 to 0 → increase
- y-value 0 to 2 → increase
From x = 0 to x = 1 the function is increasing as the y-value increases as the x-value increase:
- x-value 0 to 1 → increase
- y-value 2 to 8 → increase
D. SSS because the sides of the triangle are congruent.
U= 2.5 which is rounded to the nearest tenth.
