X2 + 1 (\frac{X - 2}{\sqrt{X^3 - 2X^2 + 3n - 3}})
= (\frac {- 6X^3 + n}{-2X^2 + 2X - 3})
= (\frac{(-2X^2 - 2)}{2X - 1})
Remainder is 2X - 1
Users' Answers & Comments-2x -5y = 3
x + 3y = 0
x = -3y
-2 (-3y) - 5y = -3
6y - 5y = 3
y = 3
but, x = -3y
x = -3(3)
x = -9
therefore, x = -9, y = 3
Users' Answers & Commentsx (\alpha\sqrt y)
x = k(\sqrt y)
81 = k(\sqrt9)
k = (\frac{81}{3})
= 27
therefore, x = 27(\sqrt y)
y = 1(\frac{7}{9}) = (\frac{16}{9})
x = 27 x (\sqrt{\frac{16}{9}})
= 27 x (\frac{4}{3})
dividing 27 by 3
= 9 x 4
= 36
Users' Answers & CommentsT (\alpha \frac{1}{R^3})
T = (\frac{k}{R^3})
k = TR3
= (\frac{2}{81}) x 33
= (\frac{2}{81}) x 27
dividing 81 by 27
k = (\frac{2}{2})
therefore, T = (\frac{2}{3}) x (\frac{1}{R^3})
When R = 2
T = (\frac{2}{3}) x (\frac{1}{2^3}) = (\frac{2}{3}) x (\frac{1}{8})
= (\frac{1}{12})

Users' Answers & Commentsx2 + 2x > 15
x2 + 2x - 15 > 0
(x2 + 5x) - (3x - 15) > 0
x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) >0
(x - 3)(x + 5) > 0
therefore, x = 3 or -5
then x < -5 or x > 3
i.e. x< 3 or x < -5
Users' Answers & Comments3, 6, 9,..., 36.
a = 3, d = 3, i = 36, n = 18
Sn = (\frac{n}{2}) [2a + (n - 1)d
S18 = (\frac{18}{2}) [2 x 3 + (18 - 1)3]
= 9[6 + (17 x 3)]
= 9 [6 + 51] = 9(57)
= 513
Users' Answers & CommentsT2 = 4, T4 = 16
Tx = arn-1
T2 = ar2-1 = 4 i.e. ar3 = 16, i.e. ar = 4
T4 = ar4-1
therefore, (\frac{T_4}{T_r}) = (\frac{ar^3}{ar}) = (\frac{16}{4})
r2 = 4 and r = 2
but ar = 4
a = (\frac{4}{r}) = (\frac{4}{2})
a = 2
Sn = (\frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r - 1})
S5 = (\frac{2(2^5 - 1)}{2 - 1})
= (\frac{2(32 - 1)}{2 - 1})
= 2(31)
= 62

3 + -(\frac{2}{3}) = 3(- (\frac{2}{3})) + 3 + (- (\frac{2}{3}))
= -2 + 3 -(\frac{2}{3})
= (\frac{1 - 2}{1 - 3})
= (\frac{1}{3})
