Answer:

44 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the 2 numbers = 2 : 5 = 2x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , thus

difference = 5x - 2x = 3x , then

3x = 66 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 22

Thus

2x = 2 × 22 = 44

5x = 5 × 22 = 110

The 2 numbers are 44 and 110

<h3>What is a line graph?</h3>

A line graph is a graph that is used to represent numerical data. It shows the changes in the data with the passage of time. There are two axes on a line graph, the vertical axis and the horizontal axis. The range of the vertical axis should start from 0 and end at the largest number of data set.

Below are two different functions, f(x) and g(x). What can be determined about their slopes?

worty [1.4K]

<h3>Answer: B) the function g(x) has a larger slope</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

The slope of f(x) is 4, since the equation y = 4x+2 has slope m = 4. Compare this to y = mx+b.

The slope of g(x) is 5. Note how if we started at (0,-2) on the red line and moved up 5 and to the right 1, we arrive at (1,3) which is another point on the red line. You could use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

to get the same result.

Since the slope of f(x) is 4 and the slope of g(x) is 5, we see that g(x) has a larger slope. The g(x) line is steeper compared to f(x).
