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.

What is -4-(-12)? I don't know if you add them or subtract.
algol [13]
You subtract negative 4 and negative 12...think in a number line and you find negative 4 and then you decrease( which means you move to your left of the number line) and find negative 12 and then you count the spaces you took to get to negative 12

Write the direct variation function given that y varies directly with x, and y = 1.5 when x = 5.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

y=0.3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula = K=\frac{y}{x}

y α x

y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

When y = 1.5; x = 5;

We substitute these known values in the equation,

y = kx

1.5 = k5

Dividing both sides of the equation by 5 to find the value for k, we have

1.5/5= k0.3/5

Therefore,

K = 0.3

Having found the value of k,

We substitute this value into the relationship

y = kx

Therefore we have,

y = 0.3x.

The direct variation function is therefore,

y = 0.3x.

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs. Not all tiles will be used. A car repair center services 920 cars in 2012. Th
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

N = 920(1+0.03)^4t

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement a car repair center services 920 cars in 2012. The number of cars serviced increases quarterly at a rate of 12% per year after 2012.

Rate is 12 % annually

rate in quarterly = 12/4= 3%

We will apply the compound interest equation:

N=P( 1+r/n)^nt

N= ending number of cars serviced.

P=  the number of cars serviced in 2012,

r = interest rate

n = the number of compoundings per year

t= total number of years.

Number of compoundings for t years = n*t = 4t

Initial number of cars serviced=920

The quarterly rate of growth = n=4

r = 3%

The growth rate = 1.03

Compound period multiplied by number of years = 920(1.03)^4t

Thus N = 920(1+0.03)^4t

N = number of cars serviced after t years...
