I think its 900
because I did 12x3 for each day and then that gave me 36 then I did 36x25 cause there's 25 kids which gave me 900
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can expand the function to get its expanded form and to figure out what degree it is. For a polynomial function with one variable, the degree is the largest exponent value (once fully expanded/simplified) of the entire function that is connected to a variable. For example, x²+1 has a degree of 2, as 2 is the largest exponent value connected to a variable. Similarly, x³+2^5 has a degree of 2 as 5 is not an exponent value connected to a variable.
Expanding, we get
(x³-3x+1)² = (x³-3x+1)(x³-3x+1)
= x^6 - 3x^4 +x³ - 3x^4 +9x²-3x + x³-3x+1
= x^6 - 6x^4 + 2x³ +9x²-6x + 1
In this function, the largest exponential value connected to the variable, x, is 6. Therefore, this is to the 6th degree. The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial of degree n has n roots, and as this is of degree 6, this has 6 roots
1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.
2. Suppose x= 10
Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.
3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.
