Explain how to find the degree of a polynomial.

1 answer:

6 0

The degree of a polynomial is the highest number as an exponent in a term, for example, 5x^3+5x^2, 3 is the degree. To find it, you need to either just find the highest number or add up multiple degrees in one term. An example of this is 5x^3y^3+4x^3y^2. Since 3+3=6 and 3+2=5, the first term has the highest degree.

What do the differences between the points (as shown on the graph) represent?

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

They represent the rise and run of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the x-axis of the points represents the "run" of the graph (or how much you should run along x-axis to get to the next point.)

The difference between the y-axis of of the points represents the "rise" of the graph (or how much you should rise up the y-xis to get to the next point).

The ratio of rise to run is the slope of the graph, which tells us how many steps should we take on the y-axis for every step we move forward on the x-axis.

An aluminum recycling center pays $0.08 per pound for cans. How much will Mark receive for 21.5 pounds of cans?

sammy [17]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\$&\stackrel{cans}{lbs}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
0.08&1\\
x&21.5
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{0.08}{x}=\cfrac{1}{21.5}\implies \cfrac{0.08\cdot 21.5}{1}=x$
