We can give all of what is inside the second parentheses a value: x x .

Now we have ( 1 + x • 0 ) • 98272 / 2 1+x•0)•98272/2

= 1 • 98272 / 2 = 1 • 98272/2

= 98272 / 2 = 98272/2

= 49136 = \boxed{49136}

I just copied and pasted into Desmos. @Micah Gadbois , why can't you use LaTeX?

I will make a number 2. This one is meant not to be in LaTex. (In the future I will try to make all my problems latex). @Amogha Pokkulandra , please don't use calculator on these types of problems. (Look at @Siva Budaraju solution.)

Yes, I know, I just figured that it would be a waste of time to get right to the point.
