Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation: This equation can be written as 4x+3x-4=17

We can now solve.

Moving the 4 to the other side (adding) and we get 21.

Now we have 4x+3x. Adding like terms, we get 7x = 21. Now we divide by 7.

X = 3.

How much is 1 and 3/4ths times 2
Tomtit [17]
To find out what 1 and 3/4 times 2 is, we need to find out a way to make it much more simple and then answer it.
A quick way to answer this in a few steps is to:
1.) convert the fraction into decimal.
To do this, we need to divide 100 by our denominator (the number on the bottom of a fraction). Let's try it.
100 / 4 = 25.
For every 1/4, it adds 25.
Since we have 3/4, multiply 3 by 25.
You get 75, but it is not whole.
2.) Put your quotient into decimal form by putting it as 0.## (if we divided 100 by a smaller number).
Your number for 3/4 is 0.75.
Since we have a whole number (1), put it in the single-digit place.
(#.00)
1.75 is your fraction into decimal form.
Now, we need to multiply 1.75 by 2.00.
2.00 x 1.75 = 3.5
Your product is 3.5.
I hope this helps!

Because
\frac{f(x)}{x-3} = 2x^{2} + 10x - 1
therefore
f(x) = (x-3)(2x² + 10x - 1) + k, where k =  constant.

Because f(3) = 4, therefore k =4.
The polynomial is
f(x) = 2x³ + 10x² - x - 6x² - 30x + 3 + 4
      = 2x³ + 4x² - 31x + 7

Answer:  f(x) = 2x³ + 4x² - 31x + 7
