Answer:
110
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define
. So when we divide it by 'x+1', we can use Bezout's Theorem which states: that any polynomial(P(X)) divided by another binomial in the form 'x - a', then the remainder will be P(a).
We can use this fact to determine the remainder, because we divided our P(X) by x + 1 which is the same as x - (-1). So we plug in P(-1).
P(-1) = (-1)^11 + 101 = -1 + 101 = 110
X = 4y
3x - y = 70
substitute the x in the second equation with the other half of the first equation.
3(4y) - y = 70
12y - y = 70
11y = 70
y = 6.36 repeating, or 6 4/11
now use this to solve first equation
x = 4 (6 4/11)
x = 25.45 repeating
done
The highest amount it could be is 2,499 + 899= 3,898 which could be rounded to 3,900
