Answer:
Option D. 9
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to obtain the answer to the question.
Method 1:
Let 2x + 1 = 0
Making x the subject, we have
2x + 1 = 0
Collect like terms
2x = –1
Divide both side by 2
x = –1/2
Now, put the value of x into the expression 4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7, we have:
4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7
x = –1/2
4(–1/2)³ – 6(–1/2)² – 8(–1/2) + 7
4(–1/8) – 6(1/4) – 8(–1/2) + 7
–1/2 – 3/2 + 4 +7
– 4/2 + 4 + 7
– 2 + 4 + 7
= 9
Method 2:
Divide 4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7 by 2x + 1

The way your problem is set it should be simplified to this....4x + 55
Answer:
51 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that for every 15 minutes of a show, there are two minutes to commercial. At this rate, Leila has seen 45 minutes of a show. We are asked to find the time for which Leila has been watching TV.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:




Therefore, Leila has been watching TV together for 51 minutes.
C - 0.17c = 0.83c
When you write “c” at the start, or x or whatever, it has an understood (invisible) number 1. So you’re subtracting the decimal on the next variable from 1.
