X + (x+2) = 154
combine like terms
2x + 2 = 154
subtract 2
2x = 154
divide by 2

The second option is the correct answer

16x^{4}+40x^{3} -24x^{2}

The expression given to us is:

8x^{2} (5x+2x^{2}-3 )

Herein, we can simplify it by opening up the bracket and multiplying each term inside the bracket by the term which is outside the bracket.

Thus, we get:

8x^{2} (5x+2x^{2}-3 )=8*5x^{2+1} +8*2x^{2+2}-8*3x^{2}

40x^{3} +16x^{4}-24x^{2}

Rearranging the above expression in descending order of power we get:

16x^{4}+40x^{3} -24x^{2}

From the given options we can see this is the second option. Hence the second option is the correct answer.

A long distance runner starts at the beginning of a trail and runs at a rate of 4 miles per hour. two hours later, a cyclist sta
valina [46]

To solve this problem, let us first assign variables. Let us say that:

A = runner

B = cyclist

d = distance

v = velocity

time = t

 

The time in which the cyclist overtakes the runner is the time wherein the distance of the two is the same, that is:

dA = dB

 

We know that the formula for calculating distance is:

d = v t

therefore,

vA tA = vB tB

 

Further, we know that tA = tB + 2, therefore:

vA (tB + 2) = vB tB

4 (tB + 2) = 14 tB

4 tB + 8 = 14 tB

10 tB = 8

tB = 0.8 hours = 48 min

 

Therefore the cyclist overtakes the runner after 0.8 hours or 48 minutes.
