Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the number of pounds of the tropical taffy that should be used

You need to take the value of the Tropical Taffy + the value of the Passion Fruit taffy to = the value of Tropical Passion

value- price per pound times the number of pounds

Your equation is going to look like this-->

5.50x+6.25(100)=6(x+100)

5.50x+625=6x+600

-5.50x        -5.50x

625=0.5x+600

-600         -600

25=0.5x

50=x

Hope this helps!

Divide -3x^3-2x^2-x-2 by x-2
Rasek [7]

Let's do this by Briot-Ruffini


First: Find the monomial root


x - 2 = 0

x = 2


Second: Allign this root with all the other coeficients from equation

Equation = -3x³ - 2x² - x - 2

Coeficients = -3, -2, -1, -2

2 | -3 -2 -1 -2


Copy the first coeficient


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3


Multiply him by the root and sum with the next coeficient


2.(-3) = -6

-6 + (-2) = -8


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8


Do the same


2.(-8) = -16

-16 + (-1) = -17


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8 -17


The same,


2.(-17) = -34

-34 + (-2) = -36


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8 -17 -36


Now you just need to put the "x" after all these numbers with one exponent less, see


2 | -3x³ - 2x² - 1x - 2

-3x² - 8x - 17 -36


You may be asking what exponent -36 should be, and I say:


None or the monomial. He's like the rest of this division, so you can say:


(-3x³ - 2x² - x - 2)/(x - 2) = -3x² - 8x - 17 with rest -36 or you can say:

(-3x³ - 2x² - x - 2)/(x - 2) = -3x² - 8x - 17 - 36/(x - 2)


Just divide the rest by the monomial.
