P(x) = (x^2)(x - 4)^2(x + 4) + some constant(b)
2025 = (1^2)(1 - 4)^2(1 + 4) + b
2025 = 45 + b
b = 1980
Complete Equation:
p(x) = (x^2)(x - 4)^2(x +4) + 1980
or expanded form
p(x) = x^5 - 4x^4 - 16x^3 + 64x^2 + 1980
Answer:
2,602,255
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so total dogs are 49.
So we know if x=large dogs and y=small dogs, then x+y=49.
Next we are told that there are 36 MORE small dogs than large dogs. We can take that more meaning addition, and x being our value for large dogs. So y=x+36.
After that we now know what value we can plug in for y. So x+x+36=49.
We can then simplify it to 2x+36=49.
Subtracting the 36 from both sides, leaves you with 2x=13.
Followed by dividing both sides by 2, gives you x=6.5. Or 6.5 large dogs.
Now we can plug this into our formula for the small dogs (y=x+36) to give us y=6.5+36, which simplifies to y=42.5. Or 42.5 small dogs. Which is our answer.
We can double check it by adding the small and large dogs together, 6.5+42.5, which gives us 49, our total entries.
