Answer:
208
Step-by-step explanation:
20 × 0 = 0
40 + 40 = 80
125 + 3 = 128
Cubic polynomial

Binomial

By vertical method of multiplication we get,

For this case we have to write the equation of the position of each one.
We have then:
For the robber:

For the marshall
:


By the time the marshall reaches the robber we have:

From here, we clear the time.
We have then:




Answer:
