Solve (16×^3-3×^2+43×-5)÷(×^2-2)
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

3872/(x^2 - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(16^3 - 3^2 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)

3^2 = 9:

(16^3 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)

16^3 = 16×16^2:

(16×16^2 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)

| 1 | 6

× | 1 | 6

| 9 | 6

1 | 6 | 0

2 | 5 | 6:

(16×256 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)

16×256 = 4096:

(4096 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)

43 (-5) = -215:

(4096 - 9 + -215)/(x^2 - 2)

4096 - 9 - 215 = 3872:

Answer: 3872/(x^2 - 2)

Please help me. I really need help
Flauer [41]
A. 38

Let X = seventh graders

6th graders are twice the number of 7th graders; therefore, 6th graders will be 2X.
The total number of students is 57.

2X + X = 57
3X       = 57
X         = 57 / 3
X         = 19

IF X represents the 7th graders; there are 19 seventh graders present.
Since 6th graders are represented by 2X; Then, 2 * 19 = 38 is the number of 6th graders present.

Add both numbers to check: 19 + 38 = 57.

The difference of the squares of two consecutive integers is 21. find the integers.
photoshop1234 [79]
Let the two integers be x and x+1
(x+1)^2-x^2=21
x^2+2x+1-x^2=21
2x+1=21
2x=20
x=10
then x=10, x+1
10+1=11
the two integers are 10, 11
