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

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

25x^2 + 90x + 84

discussion:

mn(x) = m(n(x)) = m( 5x + 9) =

(5x + 9)^2 + 3 =>

25x^2 + 90x + 9^2 + 3 =

25x^2 + 90x + 84                 (as 9^2 = 9*9 = 81)

which is the second choice

p.s.   i'll be on vacation from friday, dec 22 to jan 2, 2019. have a great new year!
