How do you find the degree of a polynomial

1 answer:

3 0

Lets look at x^2+8x-3

the degree of the polynomial is the highest power of the exponent of the placeholders

x^2, power=2
8x, power=1
-3, power=0 (-3x^0=-3)

so if you had
x^89+x^8-8x-2^100
degree is 89 since that is highest power of the placeholders

xeze [42]

$\qquad \qquad\huge \underline{\boxed{\sf Answer}}$

<h3><u>Distance travelled each day is</u> : </h3>

32.6 km

<h3><u>Explanation</u> : </h3>

Distance travelled in 14 days is : 456.4 km

And if he travels same Distance each day, so let the Distance travelled on each day be x

According to question ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 14 \times x = 456.4$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: x = 456.4 \div 14$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow x = \: 32.6 \: \: km$

So, he travels 32.6 km per day

Is 12.89 irrational

STatiana [176]

No. It's the ratio of 1,289 to 100 .

Also, it can be written as a fraction with whole numbers
on top and bottom, like this: 1289 / 100 .

Also, it can be written down on paper completely, using
digits and a decimal point or fraction bar. (You did that.)

Any one of these three facts makes it a rational number.

Mr.Ward runs a lot. He ran 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week , for 16 weeks . In that time, he ran 450 miles. What was his a

Savatey [412]

Answer:

7.5 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Ward runs a lot. He ran 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 16 weeks.

First of all, we will find time for that Mr. Ward ran in 16 weeks.

We will multiply 5 by 16 to find number of days for that Mr. Ward ran and then we will multiply the result by 45 minutes to find the time.

$\text{Time for that Mr. Ward ran in 16 weeks}=16\times 5\times 45\text{ minutes}$
