4 = (r-2) t

8 = (r+2) t

4 = (r-2) * [8/(r+2)]

4 = (8r-16)/ (r+2) . . .multiply by 2

4r + 8 = 8r - 16

4r = 24

r = 6

hope this helps

Write each polynomial in standard form. Then give the leading coefficient. You may need to combine like terms before writing the

Bond [772]

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a polynomial in standard form, put the degree that are the greatest first

So here it would be

${x}^{5} + 4 {x}^{3} - 3 {x}^{2} + 10$

Remember constant are numbers that you learned back in elementary,

Numbers like 10,90,4,1,0,-3 etc.

Remember that constant are basically represented like this

$k \times {x}^{0}$

For example, 10 is represented like

$10 \times {x}^{0}$

Since 0 is the smallest degree possible, for a polynomial, constants are the last term of a polynomial in standard form
