is the sum of two polynomials of degree 5 always a polynomial of degree 5? Give an example to explain your answer

1 answer:

7 0

A counter example is

f(x)=5x^5+2x^3+3x
g(x)=-5x^5-x^4+x^2-4

Then f(x)+g(x) = -x^4+2x^3+x^2+3x-4 which is a polynomial of degree 4.

So the answer is no. Counter-example is given above.

Find the product and write in lowest term. Give me an integer or simplified fraction. 7/54×27/35

wariber [46]

The product of given expression is $\frac{1}{15} \text{ or } 0.0667$

Solution:

Given that we have to find the product and write it in lowest term

Given expression is:

$\frac{7}{54} \times \frac{27}{35}$

Let us first find common factors of numerator and denominator so, thet simplification becomes easier

$54 = 27 \times 3\\\\35 = 7 \times 5$

Substituting these in above expression, we get

$\rightarrow \frac{7}{27 \times 3} \times \frac{27}{7 \times 5}$

Cancel the common factors in numerator and denominator

$\rightarrow \frac{1}{15}$

In decimal form, we get

$\rightarrow \frac{1}{15} = 0.0667$

Thus the product of given expression is $\frac{1}{15} \text{ or } 0.0667$

A) Find the distance of line segment PR. Round answer to the nearest tenth. B) Find the distance around the park (perimeter).

juin [17]

Answer:

A. $PR = 80.6 yd$

B. Perimeter = 190.6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Distance between P(10, 50) and R(80, 10):

$PR = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{(80 - 10)^2 + (10 - 50)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{(70)^2 + (-40)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{4,900 + 1,600}$

$PR = \sqrt{6,500}$

$PR = 80.6 yd$ (nearest tenth)

B. Distance around the park = Perimeter = PR + PQ + QR

PR = 80.6 yd

PQ = |50 - 10| = 40 yd

QR = |80 - 10| = 70 yd

Perimeter = 80.6 + 40 + 70

Perimeter = 190.6 yd
