The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of its terms.
The power of a term is the sum of the powers of all the variables in a term.
A polynomial is written starting with the greatest power in standard form.
In the first case, the power of the first term is 3, the power of the second is 3 (2 from x + 1 from y) but the power of x has decreased so it is the second term, and then so on.
In the second case, the power is starting form 2 and then increasing to 3. This is incorrect.
Therefore, Marcus' suggestion is correct.
Answer: 79 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+1 + 3x+4 = 180
7x + 5 = 180
7x = 175
x = 175:7 = 25
m8 = 3x + 4 = 3*25 + 4 = 79
Answer: 29 miles per gallon.
Reasoning: 856 miles/29.4 gallons = 29.1156462585 (rounded to the nearest mile = 29)
Hope this helped!
No
X would have to equal 6 or greater as if x was 5
5+3 is the same as 8
