One number is 4 more than another. the difference between their squares is 128. what are the numbers? smaller number= larger number=

14 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Small number : a

Larger number : a + 4

( a + 4 )^2 - a^2 = 128

a^2 + 8 a + 16    = 128

             8 a        = 128 - 16

                a         = 112 / 8

                a          = 14

And a + 4 = 18

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
