Answer: x= 12
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+6 = 42
or, 3x = 36
so, x = 12
An 8th-degree polynomial needs 9 terms that involve
x⁸, x⁷, ..., x¹, and x⁰.
x=10 implies that (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial according to the Remainder theorem.
Let the polynomial be of the form
f(x) = a₁x⁸ + a₂x⁷ + a₃x⁶ +a₄x⁵ + a₅x⁴ + a₆x³ + a₇x² + a₈x + a₉
The first few lines of the synthetic division are
10 | a₁ a₂ a₃ a₄ a₅ a₆ a₇ a₈ a₉ ( the first row has 9 coefficients)

a₁
Answer:
The first row has 9 coefficients.
We used the elimination method to find the ordered pair, (x,y), that represents the situation is (12,39).
Number of invoices = 51
Charge for tree installation = $375
Charge for tree trimming = $54
Total amount in invoices = $6,606
Let x and y represent number of installations and number of trimmings respectively.
Hence,
x + y = 51 ...(1)
375x + 54y = 6606
3 (125x + 18y) = 3*2202
125x + 18y = 2202 ...(2)
Multiplying (1) by 18, we get
18x + 18y = 918 ...(3)
(2) - (3)
107x + 0 = 1284
x = 1284/107 = 12
Hence,
y = 51 - 12 = 39.

Bill and Amy travel the same distance from home to school of 14.4 kilometers. Amy takes 40 minutes of time to arrive to school which means she has a rate of 14.4 km /40 minutes or 6 meters/ second. Bill takes a total 60 minutes to arrive to school. Hence Bill's rate is equal to 14.4 km/60 minutes or 4 meters/ second.Amy's is 2 m/s faster than Bill's speed, then.
