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

Mathematics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]2 years ago

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.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

See the proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the line AB be a straight line on the parallelogram.

A dissection of the line (using the perpendicular line X) gives:

AY ≅ BX

Another way will be using the angles.

The angles are equal - vertically opposite angles

Hence the line  AY ≅ BX (Proved)

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

520,000

Step-by-step explanation:

1400 x 200 = 280000

(400 + 800) x 400 /2 = 240000

240000 + 280000 = 520000

A walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-3x - 3. A
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b                           <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b                                    <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b                                           <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7
