"Classify the polynomial by the number of terms" means a term contains both the variables and its coefficient. For example a "monomial" has one term like 
.
A binomial has 2 terms like 
A trinomial has 3 terms like 
And a polynomial has 4 or more terms.
So basically one can classify the type of polynomial by counting the number of terms in a given equation.
Domain is (-infinity, infinity)
Range is [8, infinity)
Answer:
segment SV
Step-by-step explanation:
Observing the figure
we know that
The side that is common to triangle SUV and triangle VTS is only the segment SV
There are no common angles to triangle SUV and triangle VTS
therefore
The answer is the segment SV
To find the inverse of this function, we first need to replace f(x) with y.
y = 2x^2 + 3
Now, we swap x and y
x = 2y^2 + 3
Now, we solve for y.
-3
x - 3 = 2y^2
Sqrt both sides.
√(x - 3) = 2y
Divide by 2
√(x - 3)/2 = y
Replace y with f^-1(x)
√(x - 3)/2 = f^-1(x)
Just realized you were asking for f(-1), not f^-1(x)
Feels bad.
f(-1) = 2(-1^2 + 3)
f(-1) = 2(-1^5)
f(-1) = 2(-1)
<u>f(-1) = -2</u>
I'm leaving the original answer in case you also need the inverse function. :)
