X=number of females
47-x=number of males
# of males is 2*(number of females)-7:
47-x= 2x-7
add x to both sides:
47=3x-7
add 7 to both sides:
54=3x
divide both sides by 3:
x= 18 females
47-18= 29 males

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

4 is the largest number that is common to both 32 and 44.  Factoring it out looks like this: 4(8 + 11) = 4(8 + 11).  That's weird to me but all textbooks begin that process just that same way.

By using the remainder theorem, determine the remainder when
Greeley [361]

Answer:

-123

Step-by-step explanation:

The remainder theorem says that when a polynomial is divided by a linear factor x - c (note the minus sign), the remainder is the value of the polynomial at x = c.

When a polynomial P(x) is divided by x - c, the remainder is P(c).  In other words, to find the remainder, plug in c for x.

You're dividing by x + 4 which is the same thing as x - (-4) -- the role of c is being played by -4.

3(–4)^3 – (–4)^2 – 20(–4) + 5 = –123
