Well for starters, to negatives next to eachother make a positive. So now we rewrite the problem, -11/12 + 5/12.

Since 11/12 is bigger than 5/12, we use the bigger number’s sign which is subtraction. So 11/12 - 5/12 = 6/12.

However, you want the answer to be in simplest form. You can break down 6/12 to a smaller fraction by dividing 6 into both numbers. 6 divides by 6 is 1. And 12 divided by 6 is 2.

So your final answer is 1/2. Also known as half. I hope this helped.

Answer:

Amount of retained earnings at the end of Year 1 was $8,550

Step-by-step explanation:

In Year 1

net income= $21,100

dividends = $12,550

In Year 2

Net income = $35,100

Paid dividends = $5,550

At the end of Year 1, the company had total assets of $161,000

Retained Earning at the end of Year 1 = 0 + 21,100 - 12,550 = 8550

what is the degree of the polynomial ? what is the leading coefficient ? describe the end behavior of each function. f(x)=x^4-2x

Verizon [17]

Answer:

4th degree polynomial with leading coefficient of 1.

As x goes to negative or positive infinity, y goes to positive infinity in both cases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent on the variable. Here it is 4.

The leading coefficient is the coefficient on the the term with the highest degree, Here there is none so it is 1.

The end behavior is how x and y behave at negative and positive infinity. When graphed, this equation has a W shape. This means at each end y goes to positive infinity.
