Answer:
x4−5x3−6x2+26x+20
Step-by-step explanation:
(x−5)(x3−6x−4)
=(x+−5)(x3+−6x+−4)
=(x)(x3)+(x)(−6x)+(x)(−4)+(−5)(x3)+(−5)(−6x)+(−5)(−4)
=x4−6x2−4x−5x3+30x+20
=x4−5x3−6x2+26x+20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.
2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.
3. Next, form an equation using these variables.
x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121
x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121
4.84x = 121
x = 25
4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.
<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps
<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps
<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps
By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!
Answer:
x = 6/5 or x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve:
|5x+2|=8
We know that |u|=a the u = a and u = -a
Now solving:
|5x+2|=8
5x +2 = 8 or 5x +2 = -8
5x = 8-2 or 5x = -8-2
5x = 6 or 5x = -10
x = 6/5 or x = -10/5
x = 6/5 or x = -2
So, x = 6/5 or x = -2
