Answer: C. |-4 - 3|

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -4

y = 3

The distance between them is the difference. The mathematical operation for difference is subtraction.

Distance is a unit of measurement. Measurements cannot be negative so the absolute value sign is used to ensure the difference is positive.

Which statement describes how the graph of the given polynomial would change if the term -3x6 is adde

Lesechka [4]

Given:

Polynomial is $2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1$ .

Term $-3x^6$ is added in the given polynomial.

To find:

The end behavior of new polynomial.

Solution:

Let, $P(x)=2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1$ .

New polynomial is

$f(x)=2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1+(-3x^6)$

$f(x)=(2x^6-3x^6)+9x^5-7x^3-1$

$f(x)=-x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1$

Highest power of x is 6 which is even and leading coefficient is negative. So,

$f(x)\to -\infty\text{ as }x\to -\infty$

$f(x)\to -\infty\text{ as }x\to \infty$

Both ends of the graph will approach negative infinity.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

A stadium has two sponsorship deals. Deal A has revenue of $100,000 and expenses of $10,000. Deal B has revenue of $50,000 and e

meriva

The profit is calculated by subtracting the expenses from the revenue.
For Deal A:
Profit = $100,000 - $10,000
= $90,000
Deal B:
Profit = $50,000 - $20,000 = $30,000

For the percentage of revenue, we divide the revenue by the expense and multiply the quotient by 100%

Deal A: %revenue = $100,000/$10,000 x 100 = 1000%

Deal B: %revenue = $50,000/$20,000 x 100 = 250%
