you should multiply all of that scary stuff out
\[x(5x^2+15x-4x-12)(7x-2)=x(5x^2+11x-12)(7x-2)=\]
\[=x(35x^3-10x^2+77x^2-22x-84x+24)=x(35x^3+66x^2-106x+24)\]
\[=35x^4+66x^3-106x^2+24x=35x^4+66x^3-106x^2+24x+0\]
myininaya (myininaya):
\[35x^4+66x^3-106x^2+24x+0=Ax^4+Bx^3+Cx^2+Dx+E\]

so what is A
B
C
D
E
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A=35
B=66
C=-106
D=24
E=0
Is it right
myininaya (myininaya):
and then add them to find that sum! :)

Is it 19
myininaya (myininaya):
35+66=101
+ 24
------------
125
and 125-106=19
yep thats what I get :)
