$2\cdot x^2+2\cdot x^1+1\cdot x^0=25\\2x^2+2x+1=25\\2x^2+2x-24=0\\x^2+x-12=0\\x^2+4x-3x-12=0\\x(x+4)-3(x+4)=0\\(x-3)(x+4)=0\\x=3 \vee x=-4$

The base can't be negative, therefore $x=3$ .

$3\cdot x^0+3\cdot x^1+4\cdot x^0-4\cdot x^1+0\cdot x^0=0\\3+3x+4-4x=0\\x=7$

$2\cdot x^1+3\cdotx^0=1\cdot 2^3+1\cdot2^2+1\cdot2^1+1\cdot2^0\\2x+1=8+4+2+1\\2x=14\\x=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a.y^{3} +3y^{2} -3 ) = (ay^{2} +(4a+3)y +4(4a+3))(y-4) +64a+45$

so A = 64a +45

( $2y^{3} -5y+a =(2y^{2} +8y +27)(y-4) +108 +a$

so B = 108 +a

2A-B=0--> 2(64a+45)-108-a=0--> a =18/127

Find the value of x.

Leona [35]

This is an isosceles triangle. Therefore, at the base we have congruent angles (look at the picture).

We have the equation:

(5x + 13)° + (3x + 7)° = 180°

5x + 13 + 3x + 7 = 180 <em>combine like terms</em>

(5x + 3x) + (13 + 7) = 180

8x + 20 = 180 <em>subtract 20 from both sides</em>

8x = 160 <em>divide both sides by 8</em>
