Answer:

The two numbers are:

30 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = 48

a - b = 12

From the first eq.

a = 48 - b

Replacing this last value in the second eq.

(48 - b) - b = 12

48 - 2b = 12

48 - 12 = 2b

36 = 2b

36/2 = b

18 = b

from the first eq.

a + 18 = 48

a = 48 - 18

a = 30

Check:

from the second eq.

a - b = 12

30 - 18 = 12

Describe the transformation f(x) = 2x + 1 -&gt; g(x) = -8(x + 4) - 1
katrin2010 [14]

f(x) = 2x + 1; Paren graph = x;

The graph was shifted one unit up and stretched 2 times.

g(x) = -8(x+4) - 1 = -8x - 32 - 1 = -8x - 33

The graph was shifted 33 units down and stretched 8 times and flipped 180 degrees.

puteri [66]

Answer:

B) ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. (The included side is the side between the vertices of the two angles)

In this case, angle U, side UY and angle Y are congruent to angle U, side UW and angle W
