By definition, a polynomial is an expression with more than one term. That is a monomial. We have names for 2-termed polynomials (binomials) and 3-termed polynomials (trinomials), but that's where the naming stops and they all are called polynomials after that. Our degree is the same as the highest exponent. So our degree is a fifth degree. The leading coefficient is the number that starts out the whole polynomial AS LONG AS IT IS IN STANDARD FORM. If our polynomial started with the -4x^4, our leading coefficient would NOT be -4 since the highest degree'd term will always come first in standard form. Your choice for your answer is the first one given. Degree: 5 Leading Coefficient: -13.

Clarissa has a budget of $1,200 a month to spend for rent and food. She has already spent $928 this month. Which inequality repr
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1200-928 = 272 for the rest of the month Clarissa has to spend.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we don't want her to go over her budget so we wouldn't choose a greater than option for her so eliminate the first option and the last option. Now we just have the middle two. We want to keep it under 1200 but theres nothing wrong with spending that exact amount each month so I would pick x less than or equal to 272, since we can still equal the total of less than the total and not go over. Option 2 or B.
