Answer:
All you have to do to identify the number of terms in a polynomial is to count the number of separate parts in the polynomial separated by a plus or minus (terms)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
To do this, you need to multiply out the expressions. This is a bit tedious, but remember like FOIL for binomials, for these trinomials you must multiply each term. If you need a step-by-step, I'd be happy to provide it. Let me know.
Once you have simplified the expression, you get
-x-9/2x-4
But, the problem stipulates that a must equal 1. We can equivalently factor out the negative sign and put it on the denominator with no change to write
x+9/-(2x-4) = x+9/-2x+4
So, seeing where each coefficient corresponds between the two expressions, you get a = 1, b = 9, c = –2, and d = 4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x = y-4
0 = y - 4 -x
4 = y - x
2. 2x+4y = 10
x+4y = 5
x+y = 5/4
