Ben is 12 years older than Ishaan. Ben and Ishaan first met two years ago. Three years ago, Ben was 4 times as old as Ishaan.
How old is Ishaan now?

Ishaan is now 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ben is 12 years older, and you have the info that three years ago, he was 4 years older, then all you have to do is divide 12 by 4, giving you 3. You add 3 to that because it's been three years. You have your answer of 6.

Hope this helps! :)

(x3 + 6x2 + 2x - 6) • (x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

polynomial long division :

3.2     polynomial long division

dividing :   x4+5x3-4x2-8x+6

                              ("dividend")

by         :     x-1     ("divisor")

dividend     x4   +   5x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * x3     x4   -   x3            

remainder         6x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 6x2         6x3   -   6x2        

remainder             2x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 2x1             2x2   -   2x    

remainder               -   6x   +   6

- divisor   * -6x0               -   6x   +   6

remainder                     0

quotient :   x3+6x2+2x-6   remainder:   0
