-- After dog ate 1/2 of the collection, there were 29 remaining.
-- Just before dog came along, there were (2 x 29) = 58 cards.

=x = -90/-2
=x = +45
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
They are not because the left side is 52, while the right side is 0.
(3x² -7x⁴) from (5x² - 3x⁸)
= 5x² - 3x⁸ - (3x² -7x<span>⁴ )
= </span> 5x² - 3x⁸ - 3x² + 7x<span>⁴
= </span>- 3x⁸ + 7x⁴ + 5x² <span>- </span><span>3x²
</span>
= - 3x<span>⁸ </span>+ 7x⁴ + 2x<span>²</span>
16n+8=4
16n=4-8
16n=-4
n=-4/16
n=-1/4.
