Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that three pairs of gloves- a red pair, a blue pair, and a green pair-are in a drawer.  The gloves are removed at random without returning any to the drawer.

We have to find the minimum number that must be removed in order to guarantee having a matched pair of gloves

No of different colours = 3 (red, blue, green)

Hence no of gloves that must be removed = 3+1

If 4 gloves are removed, only 3 can be of different colours 1 will have same colour as any one of the three.

So a pair of same colour would be obtained

Answer is 4

When the polynomial is written in standard form, what are the values of the leading coefficient and the constant? 5x + 2 - 3x^2
earnstyle [38]
Leading coefficient = -3
Constant = 2

When you order them in standard form, you need to put them in ascending order of the exponents. Therefore the -3x^2 would come first, which makes the number attached (-3) the lead coefficient. 

Also, since the number (2) without an x attached would be last (due to the power of x technically being 0), than that is the constant.
