Question

Find the answer using long division method. p(x) = 8x^4 = 12x^3 - 18x = 14 g(x) = x - 2 Please write it in a sheet and send the answer. ANSWER IT CORRECTLY. OTHERWISE IT WILL BE REPORTED.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number of cows be x and their legs be 4x.

Let the number of chicken be y and their legs be 2x.

Total number of legs = 4x + 2y.

Total number of heads = x + y.

The number of legs was 14 more than twice the number of heads.

Therefore, 2 × (x + y) + 14 = 4x + 2y.

or, 2x + 2y + 14 = 4x + 2y.

or, 2x + 14 = 4x [subtracting 2y from both sides].

or, 14 = 4x – 2x [subtracting 2x from both sides].

or, 14 = 2x.

or, x = 7 [dividing by 2 on both sides].

Answer 2

Answer:

$x - 2 = 0 \\ x = 2$

$px = 8(2) \times 4 - 12(2) \times 3 - 18(2) - 14$

$128 - 96 - 36 - 14$

$= 8$

$value \: = 8$

$x = 7/49 or 7$
