Answer:

c) The equation to find the price of each shrub is    $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50

The cost of 1 shrub = p =  $ 9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of shrubs purchased = 4

The price paid for potting soil = $17.50

The total bill of purchase = $53.50

Let us assume the cost of 1 shrub   = $p

The total amount spent of 4 shrubs = 4 x ( The price of each shrub)  =  4 p

TOTAL BILL = The amount paid for 4 shrubs +  AMOUNT paid for SOIL

⇒ $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50

Now. solving for p, we get:

53.50 - 17.50  = 4  p

or, 3 6  = 4 p

or, p = 36/4 = 9

or, p = 9

Hence, the cost of each shrub = $9

The polynomial 3x2 is a with a degree of .
ZanzabumX [31]

To determine the degree of a polynomial, you look at every term:

  • if the term involves only one variable, the degree of that term is the exponent of the variable
  • if the term involves more than one variable, the degree of that term is the sum of the exponents of the variables.

So, for example, the degree of 7x^{55} is 55, while the degree of xy^2z^4 is 1+2+4 = 7

Finally, the term of the degree of the polynomial is the highest degree among its terms.

So, 3x^2 is a degree 2 polynomial (although it only has one term)

similarly, x^2y + 3xy^2 + 1 is a degree 3 polynomial: the first two terms have degree 3, because they have exponents 2 and 1.
