Answer:

unlikely

Long Division: (3x^4-8x^3-x^2+9x+5) / (x-2) pleaseee answer this

Drupady [299]

3<em>x</em>⁴ = 3<em>x</em>³ • <em>x</em>, and

3<em>x</em>³ (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³

Subtract this from the numerator to get a remainder of

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³) = -2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-2<em>x</em>³ = -2<em>x</em>² • <em>x</em>, and

-2<em>x</em>² (<em>x</em> - 2) = -2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²

Subtract this from the previous remainder to get a new remainder of

(-2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²) = -5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-5<em>x</em>² = -5<em>x</em> • <em>x</em>, and

-5<em>x</em> (<em>x</em> - 2) = -5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>

Subtract this from the last remainder to get a new one of

(-5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>) = -<em>x</em> + 5

-<em>x</em> = -1 • <em>x</em>, and

-1 (<em>x</em> - 2) = -<em>x</em> + 2

This gives a new remainder of

(-<em>x</em> + 5) - (-<em>x</em> + 2) = 3

3 does not divide <em>x</em>, so we're done.

So, we have

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) / (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>³ - 2<em>x</em>² - 5<em>x</em> - 1 + 3/(<em>x</em> - 2)

This problem is taken from the delightful book "Problems for Mathematicians, Young and Old" by Paul R. Halmos. Suppose that 681

aleksley [76]

Answer:

680 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 681 tennis players want to play an elimination tournament.

1st round:

One of 681 players, chosen at random, sits out that round and 680 players play. There will be 340 winners plus one player which sits - 341 players for the next round and 340 games

2nd round:

There will be 170 winners plus one player which sits - 171 players for the next round and 170 games

3rd round:

There will be 85 winners plus one player which sits - 86 players for the next round and 85 games

4th round:

There will be 43 winners - 43 players for the next round and 43 games

5th round:

There will be 21 winners plus one player which sits - 22 players for the next round and 21 games

6th round:

There will be 11 winners - 11 players for the next round and 11 games

7th round:

There will be 5 winners plus one player which sits - 6 players for the next round and 5 games

8th round:

There will be 3 winners - 3 players for the next round and 3 games

9th round:

There will be 1 winner plus one player which sits - 2 players for the next round and 1 game

10th round - final:

1 champion and 1 game.

In total,

340 + 170 + 85 + 43 + 21 + 11 + 5 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 680 games
