Let x be the greater number.

x+(x-2)=44

2x-2=44

2x=46

x=23.

Therefore, the greater of the two is 23.

Solve the system algebraically.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Let 2x + y - 10 = 0 be equation (a).

Let x - y - 5 = 0 be equation (b).

Make y the subject in equation (b):

{ \tt{x - y - 5 = 0}} \\ { \tt{y = x - 5}}

Substitute for y in equation (a):

{ \tt{2x + (x - 5) - 10 = 0}} \\ { \tt{3x - 15 = 0}} \\ { \tt{3x = 15}} \\  { \tt{x = 5}}

Find y in any equation of your choice:

{ \tt{y = (5) - 5}} \\ y = 0

Write as a product:<br> p^2–(2p+1)^2
Maslowich

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

a= p ;    b = 2p + 1

p² - (2p + 1)² = (p + 2p +1) (p - [2p+1] )

                     = (3p + 1) (p - 2p -1)

                     = (3p + 1)(-p - 1)

How to graph f(x)=(x-2)^2+3
iris [78.8K]

Using translation concepts, the graph of f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3 is given at the end of the question.

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

In this problem, we have that the parent and the translated function are given, respectively, by:

  • g(x) = x².
  • f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3.

The translations are as follows:

  • Right two units, as x -> x - 2.
  • Up 3 units, because f(x) = g(x) + 3.

Hence the graphs are given at the end of the answer, with the parent function in red and the translated function f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3 in green.
