Answer:
the polynomial has degree 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the degree of a polynomial is given by the degree of its leading term (the term with largest degree). Recall as well that the degree of a term is the maximum number of variables that appear in it.
So, let's examine each of the terms in the given polynomial, and count the number of variables they contain to find their individual degrees. then pick the one with maximum degree, and that its degree would give the actual degree of the entire polynomial.
1) term contains four variables "x" and two variables "y", so a total of six. Then its degree is: 6
2) term contains two variables "x" and five variables "y", so a total of seven. Then its degree is: 7
3) term contains four variables "x" and four variables "y", so a total of eight. Then its degree is: 8
This last term is therefore the leading term of the polynomial (the term with largest degree) and the one that gives the degree to the entire polynomial.
The two quadrilaterals are given similar .
In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .
The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC
We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:
To solve for x we cross multiply
12x=(16)(18)
12x=288
Dividing both sides by 12 we get
x=24.
The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.
