Answer:
x is equal to 2.5 and -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x + 1)² - 3 = -51
-4(x² + 2x + 1) - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x -3 - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x - 6 = -51
-4x² - 8x = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x) = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x + 1) = -49
-4(x + 1)² = -49
(x + 1)² = 49/4
x + 1 = ± √(49/4)
x + 1 = ± 7/2
x = -1 ± 3.5
x = 2.5, -4.5
A 5 unit circle essay would be about whatever you would want it to be and this is no question this is cheating
2/3 of the list = 12
2/3x = 12
x = 12 / (2/3)
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 36/2
x = 18 <=== there are 18 words on the list
Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = y
Basically, you put all the numbers from greatest to least with exponents then variables.
We have the numbers:
9
-x²
2x^5
-7x
Put these numbers from least to greatest from the exponents.
2x^5 - x² - 7x + 9
The degree of the polynomial is the number with the greatest exponent. In this case, the highest exponent is 5.
The degree of the polynomial is 5.
Best of Luck!
