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

(04.07) The same amount of trash is dumped into a landfill every day. The function below shows the total number of tons of trash
Nikitich [7]
Answer:
1000 represents the amount of trash that was originally present in the landfill before dumping any extra trash.
i.e : It is the amount of trash at day zero

Explanation:
The initial value of a function is defined as the started value of the function independent of any variables present in the function

The given function is:
n = 2000x + 1000
where n is the amount of trash and x is the number of days
To get the initial value, we will set the variable (x) to be equal to zero
Therefore, initially:
n = 2000(0) + 1000 = 1000
This means that the initial value of the trash at day zero is 1000.

Hope this helps :)

Lisa [10]

Answer:

30+0.09x

Here, x denotes number of frosting flowers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes number of frosting flowers.

Amount charged by baker for each batch of cupcakes = $30

Amount charged for each frosting flower = $0.09

Amount charged for x frosting flowers = \$0.09x

Total cost of a batch of cupcakes with frosting flowers = 30+0.09x
