In equation, let x be the number of male students
a be the number of adults
y be the number of female students.
x= 7a+1
a= x/7 -1
y= x/2 or (7a + 1)/ 2

a + b = 82, let b be the number of students.
a + (x + y) = 82
a + [7a+1 + (7a+1)/2] = 82
a + [{2(7a+1) + 7a+1} / 2] = 82
a + [(14a +2 + 7a +1) / 2] = 82
a + [(21a + 3) / 2] = 82
(2a+ 21a + 3) / 2 = 82
(23a + 3) / 2 = 82
23a + 3 = 164
23a = 164 -3 
23a = 161
a = 7

x = 7(7) +1, 49+1 = 50 male students
y=x/2, 50/2, 25 female students

50(male students) + 25(female students)  + 7 (adults) = 82

Answer:

N + 3 = -5

n= -8

N-4=9

n=13

4+N=10

n=6

-10+N=3

n=13

N-10=1

n=11

-11+n=-12

n=-1

N+19=20

n=1

15+N=-10

n=-25

N-6=-12

n=-6

N+4=16

Answer:

\hookrightarrow \sf  x^6+24x^5+240x^4+1280x^3+3840x^2+6144x+4096

solving steps:

\rightarrow \sf (x + 4)^6

\bold{rewrite \ the \ following}

\rightarrow \sf (x + 4)^2   (x + 4)^2   (x + 4)^2

\bold {formula \ used : \sf  (x+a)^2 = (x^2 + 2xa + a^2)}

\rightarrow \sf (x^2 + 8x+16)    (x^2 + 8x+16)    (x^2 + 8x+16)

\bold{simplify \ by  \ removing \ parenthesis}

\rightarrow \sf (x^4 +8x^3 + 16x^2 + 8x^3 +64x^2 + 128x+16x^2+128x+256 ) (x^2 + 8x+16)

\bold{basic \ addition \ of \ integers }

\rightarrow \sf (x^4+16x^3+96x^2+256x+256) (x^2 + 8x+16)

\bold{remove \ parenthesis}

\rightarrow \sf (x^6 + 16x^5 + 96x^4 + 256x^3 + 256x^2 + 8x^6 + 128x^4 + 768x^3 + 2048x^2 + 2048 + 16x^4 + 256x^3 + 1536x^2 + 4096x + 4096)

\bold {final \ answer:}

\rightarrow \sf  x^6+24x^5+240x^4+1280x^3+3840x^2+6144x+4096
