Answer: Jace owns 20 dvds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of DVDs that Louis owns.

Jace owns twice as many dvds an Louis. This means that the number of DVDs that Jace owns is 2x.

Bo has sixty fewer dvds than 5 times louis's collection. This means that the number of DVDs that Bo owns is 5x - 60

If jace and bo have the same amount of dvds, it means that

5x - 60 = 2x

5x - 2x = 60

3x = 60

Dividing both sides by 3, it become

x = 60/3

x = 20

(2x^3+16x^2-12x+9) ÷ (x+7)
madam [21]
Always eliminate the first one before moving on. Remember to drop down monomials, like you would a normal division problem.

                     2x² + 10x + 18
         __________________
x + 3 | 2x³ + 16x² - 12x + 9
         -(2x³ + 6x²)
         -------------------------------
                    10x² - 12x
                  -(10x² - 30x)
         -----------------------------
                            + 18x + 9
                          - (18x + 54)
                    ----------------------
                                      -45


  2x² + 10x + 18        R: -45/x + 3 is your answer R: = remainder


hope this helps
