What is the first term of the quotient of the following division problem?
(x^3 – 1) ÷ (x + 2)
a. –0.5
b. 1
c. x^2
d. x^4

option C

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^3-1) divide by x+2

Use long division

                 x^2 -2x

x+2          x^3 + 0x^2 +0x -1

               x^3 + 2x^2

              (subtract it)

                      - 2x^2 +0x - 1

                       -2x^2 - 4x

             (subtract)

                                   5x -1

So the first term is x^2

1696 hundred thousand

step-by-step explanation:

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
