Answer:

The two numbers are 47 and 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 1st number

consecutive means in a row so x+1 is the next consecutive number

Add them together

x+x+1 = 95

Combine like terms

2x+1 = 95

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1 =95-1

2x = 94

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 94/2

x =47

x+1 = 48

The two numbers are 47 and 48

Answer:

Horizontal shift to the RIGHT of one unit

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking at a square root equation, the transformation form is:

$f(x) = a\sqrt{b(x-h)} +k$

'h' represents a horizontal shift of the graph. Therefore, in this instance:

$f(x) = \sqrt{x-1}$

This means that there is a horizontal shift to the RIGHT of one unit.
