Answer:
The experimental probability can be expressed in three ways:
Fraction Form: 3/6 or 1/2
Decimal Form: 0.5
Percent Form: 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Experimental probability is expressed as:
<em>(Favorable outcomes) / (Total outcomes)</em>
The favorable outcome in this situation is blubbery muffins. There were 3 blueberry muffins sold, so this is the <u>numerator</u> of our fraction.
To find the total outcomes we add 3 + 3, which equals 6. This will be the <u>denominator</u> of our fraction.
The fraction used to express experimental probability will look like this: 3/6
We can further simplify this to 1/2.
3 ÷ 3 = 1
6 ÷ 3 = 2
To find a decimal, we divide 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5
Multiply this by 100 to get a percentage, 0.5 x 100 = 50%
Answer:
the polynomial has degree 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the degree of a polynomial is given by the degree of its leading term (the term with largest degree). Recall as well that the degree of a term is the maximum number of variables that appear in it.
So, let's examine each of the terms in the given polynomial, and count the number of variables they contain to find their individual degrees. then pick the one with maximum degree, and that its degree would give the actual degree of the entire polynomial.
1) term 
contains four variables "x" and two variables "y", so a total of six. Then its degree is: 6
2) term 
contains two variables "x" and five variables "y", so a total of seven. Then its degree is: 7
3) term 
contains four variables "x" and four variables "y", so a total of eight. Then its degree is: 8
This last term is therefore the leading term of the polynomial (the term with largest degree) and the one that gives the degree to the entire polynomial.
