The sum of the two numbers is 47: (x + y = 47) ---(Equation 1) The subtraction of the two numbers is 13: (x - y = 13) ---(Equation 2) To find the values of (x) and (y), we can solve this system of equations. We can solve this system by adding Equation 1 and Equation 2: ((x + y) + (x - y) = 47 + 13) (2x = 60) (x = 30) Now, substitute the value of (x) into Equation 1 to solve for (y): (30 + y = 47) (y = 47 - 30) (y = 17) Therefore, the two numbers are 30 and 17, as their sum is 47 and their subtraction is 13.

Which statement best describes the key changes in perspectives on inclusion? An inclusive program must consider the unique experiences of every child and family as well as the child's strengths and needs. There is a shift in thinking about individual programs as "inclusive programs" to thinking about inclusion as something that reflects the cultural influence of the family. There is a greater emphasis on barriers to full participation and the acknowledgement that all children are unique and must be fully and meaningfully engaged in a program. In an inclusive program all participants are accepted by their peers and other members of the community.
