Answer: C. She is dividing the entire length into shorter lengths.
The rest of the question would be "How many pieces will she get?"
Step-by-step explanation:
A would be a subtraction problem UNLESS it goes on to ask "how many 1/3 yard pieces can she cut?"
It's a subtraction problem if it's about "how many yards are left?"
B is just backwards and makes no sense with the expression given.
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify the expression into like terms
so 5a-2b-3+2b-6a (add all a and b together)
this will make
-a-3
I know how to do the equivalent sorry :(
A polynomial is defined as a collection of variables and constant terms combined by various mathematical operations. The exponents of the variables in a polynomials must be non-negative integers.
If you observe the given options, one of the option (option B) contains a negative exponent. Hence the expression in option B is not a polynomial.
The graph shows solutions to be ...
(x, f(x)) = (x, g(x)) = (-2, 5), (2, -3)
_____
Analytically, it works well to find
g(x) -f(x) = 0
(x^2 -2x -3) -(-2x +1) = 0
x^2 -4 = 0
x^2 = 4
x = ±√4 = ±2
Then
f(-2) = -2(-2) +1 = 5
f(2) = -2(2) +1 = -3
