The computation illustrated shows that the numbers that can be used to get the sum of 42 will be 12 and 15.

<h3>How to compute the value?</h3>

It should be noted that the puzzle simply involves algebraic thinking. The goal is to find numbers that can be added together that will give 42.

From the information, it should be noted that 7 and 8 have been given. Therefore, this will be:

= 42 - (7 + 8)

= 42 - 15

= 27

Therefore, the numbers that can give 27 can be put in the box. An example is 12 and 15.

How do I solve this?<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B3x%7D%7B8%7D%20%20-%201%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%
AURORKA [14]

To solve this problem, we first have to combine the two fractions on the left side of the equation.  To do this, we must make a common denominator of 8.  Because 8/8 is equal to 1, we can substitute this value into the equation:

3x/8 - 8/8 = 5/8

Next, we can subtract the fractions on the left side of the equation to simplify.  Remember that if fractions have the same denominator, we simply subtract their numerators and keep the difference over the common denominator.

3x - 8/8 = 5/8

Since both sides of the equation have a denominator of 8, we can cancel out this denominator on both sides by multiplying both sides by 8.  This gives us:

3x - 8 = 5

Next, we should add 8 to both sides of the equation so that we can get all of the constants to the right side of the equation.

3x = 13

Finally, we should divide both sides by 3 to get the variable alone on the left side of the equation.

x = 13/3

Therefore, your answer is x = 13/3.

Hope this helps!

Find the value of c so that (x+1) is a factor of the polymonial p(x)=5x^4+7x^3-2x^2-3x+c
Andru [333]

Answer:

BRAINLIEST PLZZZZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Also given that (x+1) is factor of given polynomial p(x).

Need to determine value of constant c.

We will be solving above problem using factor theorem.

Factor theorem says that if ( x – a) is a factor of any polynomial f(x) , then f(a) = 0.

As in our case f(x) = p(x) and factor of p(x) is (x + 1) , which can be rewritten as (x – ( -1)) , so "a" in our case is -1 .

According to factor theorem p(-1) = 0

On substituting x = -1 , in given expression of p(x) we get

Hence value of c in the given polynomial is 1
