Im doin the same stuff and can’t figure it out
The distance is 14 miles; the first jogger finishes in two hours, while the slower jogger is still 12 miles in. The slower jogger then reaches the end of 14 miles twenty minutes later, because 6mph also means 2 miles per twenty minutes.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the numbers at unit,ten and hundred place be x,y,z respectively,then number=100z+10y+x
also x=4z
y=z+5
and x+y+z=17
4z+z+5+z=17
6z=17-5=12
z=2
y=2+5=7
x=2×4=8
number=100×2+10×7+8=278
Answer: <span><span>2x² + x - 2</span> (the first option)
Explanation:
1) Question: divide 8x⁴+2x³-7x²+3x-2 by 4x² - x + 1
2) First term of the quotient
</span><span> 8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2 | 4x² - x + 1
---------------------
-8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x² 2x²
----------------------------------
4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2
3) Second term of the quotient:
</span>
<span> 8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2 | 4x² - x + 1
---------------------
-8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x² 2x² + x
----------------------------------
4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2
-4x³ + x² - x
----------------------------
- 8x² + 2x - 2
4) third term of the quotient:
</span>
<span> 8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2 | 4x² - x + 1
---------------------
-8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x² 2x² + x - 2
----------------------------------
4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2
-4x³ + x² - x
----------------------------
- 8x² + 2x - 2
8x² - 2x + 2
-------------------------
0
5) Conclusion: since the remainder is 0, the division is exact and the quotient is </span>2x² + x - 2
You can verify the answer by multiplying the quotient obtained by the divisor. The result has to be the dividend.
Your answer is

because the numbers raised to negative powers must be flipped over the divisor to become positive. Then, when multiplying 2 and z, you add their exponents.
