The correct statement for the given description is [tex]\dfrac{n^3}{16}-2+8[/tex], while the value of the expression for x = 4 is 10.
What is a linear equation?
A linear equation is one in which the variable's maximum power is always 1. A one-degree equation is another name for it.
The description of the statement is:
- "Two less than the quotient of a number cubed and sixteen, increased by eight"
- and n = 4
Now, the given statements of the problem can be written as,
- "Two less than x" describes "x- 2"
- "Quotient of x and y" describes
- "x increased by y" describes
Further, by combining all three statements, [tex]\dfrac{n^3}{16}[/tex] is the quotient and 2 is subtracted and 8 is increased which means 8 is added.
Thus, the resultant expression is [tex]\dfrac{n^3}{16}-2+8[/tex].
Evaluating the obtained expression at n=4,
Replace n with 4 and evaluate the expression as follows.
[tex]\dfrac{n^3}{16}-2+8|_{n=4} = \dfrac{4^3}{16}-2+8 = 4+6 =10[/tex]
