Answer:
3872/(x^2 - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(16^3 - 3^2 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
3^2 = 9:
(16^3 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
16^3 = 16×16^2:
(16×16^2 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
| 1 | 6
× | 1 | 6
| 9 | 6
1 | 6 | 0
2 | 5 | 6:
(16×256 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
16×256 = 4096:
(4096 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
43 (-5) = -215:
(4096 - 9 + -215)/(x^2 - 2)
4096 - 9 - 215 = 3872:
Answer: 3872/(x^2 - 2)
