Answer:

3 AND 5

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE TWO NUMBERS BE X AND Y

THEN

X + Y = 8 …….1

X – Y = 2 …… 2

WE SOLVE SIMULTANOUSLY  

SUBTRACTNG EQATION 2 FROM 1

X – X  + Y – (-Y) = 8 – 2

Y + Y = 6

2Y = 6

DIVIDING EACH TERM BY 2

2Y/2 = 6/2

Y = 3

THEN PUTTING Y = 3 IN EQUATION 1

X + 3 = 8

X = 8 – 3

X = 5

Y’all I need help with this
topjm [15]

Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quantities are in direct proportion then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

The y- axis is number of cups and x- axis is pounds of sugar

To find k use any of the 5 points highlighted on the graph

Using (8, 40 ), then

40 = 8k ( divide both sides by 8 )

5 = k

Find (f o g)(x)<br> Consider f(x) = x + 7 and g(x) = x2 –1
natima [27]
<h3>Answer:  x^2 + 6</h3>

Work Shown:

(f o g)(x) = f(g(x))

f(x) = x + 7

f( g(x) ) = g(x) + 7 ... replace every x with g(x)

f( g(x) ) = x^2-1 + 7 .... plug in g(x) = x^2-1

f( g(x) ) = x^2 + 6

(f o g)(x) = x^2 + 6
