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.

Joe ate twice as many pieces of Halloween candy as Ed. Together they ate 48 pieces.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of candy Ed took be denoted as "x"

Since Joe ate twice the amount of candy Ed ate, then the number of candies joe ate will be denoted as "2x"

Since all together they ate a total of 48 candies, then the sum of the candies eaten by Joe and Ed is what gives a total of 48

This means:

2x + x = 48

3x = 48

X = 16.

Which exponential function is graphed here?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

y = 5^x

Step-by-step explanation:

y= b*(a)^x + c

c could = 1 but then you would not have an exponential function. c = 0 because the graph follows the x axis up until x = -2. Suppose c = 1. The the graph would follow y = 1 up until x = - 2

When x = 0, y = 1 which means that b. If b is anything but 0 or 1 then the y intercept would be stretched to a different place. If be = 0 then y would = 0.

So the graph is of the form y = a^x

Now when x = 0 the graph, the y intercept is y = a^0  or y = 1 So the y intercept is (0,1)

Now the next point is thing to solve for is a.

When x = 1, y = 5  (read the graph)

y = a^x

5 = a^1

5 = a because a^1 is a.

Answer

y = 5^x.

5 = a^1
