At the start of the week, Crystal’s bank account had a balance of $280. Each day from Monday to Friday, she used her debit card to pay $5 for parking. She wrote a check for $42, and made two deposits of $75 each. She also withdrew $200 in cash at an ATM. What was Crystal’s balance at the end of the week? Evaluate the expression below to solve the problem.

280 + 5(–5) + (–42) + 2(75) + (–200)

$ = ??

Evaluate 8x2 + 9x − 1 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x dx. solution since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, we don't need to divide. we factor the denominator as 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x = x(2x2 + 3x − 2) = x(2x − 1)(x + 2). since the denominator has three distinct linear factors, the partial fraction decomposition of the integrand has the form† 8x2 + 9x − 1 x(2x − 1)(x + 2) = correct: your answer is correct. to determine the values of a, b, and c, we multiply both sides of this equation by the product of the denominators, x(2x − 1)(x + 2), obtaining 8x2 + 9x − 1 = a correct: your answer is correct. (x + 2) + bx(x + 2) + cx(2x − 1).
