Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an absolute value equation $|x+2|+16=14$ . We are asked to solve our given equation.

First of all, we will subtract 16 from both sides of our given equation.

$|x+2|+16-16=14-16$

$|x+2|=-2$

We know that absolute value is always greater than on equal to 0 and it cannot be less than 0.

Since -2 is less than 0, therefore, there is no solution for our given absolute value equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression consisting of indeterminates and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables.

since there is a term of m^-1 (a negative exponent) that we cannot combine with others (as it is not multiplied with another m-based term), it is NOT a polynomial.
