A. Is the sum of two polynomials always a polynomial? Explain

Mathematics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:  The answers for both (a) and (b) is YES.


Step-by-step explanation: A polynomial is an algebraic expression containing   two or more algebraic terms, i.e., the sum of several terms that contain different powers of the same variable or variables with real coefficients.

For example, p(x) = 4x²+x+2 is a polynomial in variable 'x'.

(a) Yes, the sum of two polynomials is again a polynomial. For example,

if p(x) = ax² + bx + c  and  q(x) = dx² + ex + f, where, a, b, c, d, e and f are real numbers, then their sum will be

p(x) + q(x) = (a+d)x²+(b+e)x+(c+f), which is again a polynomial in 'x' with real coefficients.

(b) Yes, the difference of two polynomials is again a polynomial. For example,

p(x) - q(x) = (a-d)x²+(b-e)x+(c-f), which is again a polynomial in 'x' with real coefficients.

Thus, the answer is YES.

G(x)=-x^2/4 +7<br> Over which interval does g have a negative average rate of change?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

1- Substitute g ( x ) = 0

Reduce

g ( x ) = - x 2/4 + 7

2- Move the variable to the left

0 = - x 1/2 + 7

3- Simplify the equation

x 1/2 = 7

4- Simplify Evaluate

( x 1/2 ) ² = 7²

5- Check the solution

x= 49

6- Simplify

0= - 49 2/4 + 7

7- x = 49 is a solution

0 = 0

Deandra is doing her math homework. Out of 24 problems total, she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour and the last 12 in 3
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

6 problems per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Total problems = 24

she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour

The last 12 in 3 hours.

Total time = 1 hour + 3 hours

= 4 hours

unit rate for all 24 problems = total number of problems / total time taken

= 24 problems / 4 hours

= 6 problems per hour
