Answer:
7 pieces of homework
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an algebra problem. We first need to set up our algebra equation and we are going to find X (The amount of homework Richard submitted)
The algebra equation would be
X+X+2=12
*Combine like terms*
2X+2=12
Subtract 2 to both sides
2X=10
X=5
That means that Richard did 5 pieces of homework. We are not done yet because we want to find the amount of homework Isaac did. Earlier in the problem, it said that Issac did 2 more pieces of homework than Richard. Take Richard's number, 5 and add to 2 to it to get 7 pieces of homework.
4 (x-3)=3x-4
4x-12=3x-4
4x-12-3x=3x-4-3x
x-12=-4
x-12+12=-4+12
x=8
<span> divide a polynomial p(x) by (x-3). Add and subtract the multiple of (x-3) that has the same highest-power term as p(x), then simplify to get a smaller-degree polynomial r(x) plus multiple of (x-3). </span>
<span>The multiple of (x-3) that has x^4 as its leading term is x^3(x-3) = x^4 - 3x^3. So write: </span>
<span>x^4 + 7 = x^4 + 7 + x^3(x - 3) - x^3(x - 3) </span>
<span>= x^4 + 7 + x^3(x - 3) - x^4 + 3x^3 </span>
<span>= x^3(x - 3) + 3x^3 + 7 </span>
<span>That makes r(x) = 3x^3 + 7. Do the same thing to reduce r(x) by adding/subtracting 3x^2(x - 3) = 3x^3 - 9x^2: </span>
<span>= x^3(x - 3) + 3x^3 + 7 + 3x^2(x - 3) - (3x^3 - 9x^2) </span>
<span>= x^3(x - 3) + 3x^2(x - 3) + 9x^2 + 7 </span>
<span>Again to reduce 9x^2 + 7: </span>
<span>= x^3(x - 3) + 3x^2(x - 3) + 9x^2 + 7 + 9x(x - 3) - (9x^2 - 27x) </span>
<span>= x^3(x - 3) + 3x^2(x - 3) + 9x(x - 3) + 27x + 7 </span>
<span>And finally write 27x + 7 as 27(x - 3) + 88; </span>
<span>x^4 + 7 = x^3(x - 3) + 3x^2(x - 3) + 9x(x - 3) + 27(x - 3) + 88 </span>
<span>Factor out (x - 3) in all but the +88 term: </span>
<span>x^4 + 7 = (x - 3)(x^3 + 3x^2 + 9x + 27) + 88 </span>
<span>That means that: </span>
<span>(x^4 + 7) / (x - 3) = x^3 + 3x^2 + 9x + 27 with a remainder of 88</span>
You have to use a ratio so in order to answer the question find out how many times 100 goes into 7,764 which is 77.64 and then multiply 77.64 by 6 which is your answer 465.64
