Answer:
1) D. 
2) E. The coefficient of
is -16.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A polynomial is an algebraic expression of the form
, where
is the grade of the polynomial. In this case, the only equation that satisfies this definition is:

Correct answer: D
2) Let
, we proceed to expand the expression by algebraic means:


We see that coefficients for
and
are -16 and 0, respectively. Hence, the incorrect answer is E.
5/6 of an hour is 50 min. So 50 times 3 equals 150 min for reading. 3/4 of an hour is 45 min. 45 times 2 equals 90 min for science. And 1/2 of an hour is 30 min. So 30 times 4 equals 120 mins for math. Add 150,90, and 120 min all together and you get 360 mins total. Divide 360 by 60, and you get 6 hours total that Michaela spent on reading, math, and science. Not 2 1/2.
Answer:
A)dilation
Step-by-step explanation:
The transformation preserves only angle measurement is dilation. The transformation helps in taking up the production of an image that is of the same shape as the main original image.
Answer:
B 10.8 or
A 9.2 depending on what side of the triangle is "x".
Step-by-step explanation:
we cannot see the triangle and which side is which. you forgot to show us the picture (or describe it in more detail).
but I assume that "x" would be the Hypotenuse (the baseline of the right triangle, the side opposite of the 90 degree angle).
then by using Pythagoras
c² = a² + b²
=>
x² = 10² + 4² = 116
x = sqrt(116) = 10.8
but if x is any of the other sides (and not the Hypotenuse), then you need to adapt the calculation.
for example, if the Hypotenuse is the side with 10, then Pythagoras' formula would look like this
10² = x² + 4²
x² = 10² - 4² = 84
x = sqrt(84) = 9.2 (and answer A would be correct).
or if the Hypotenuse is the side with 4, then
4² = x² + 10²
x² = 4² - 10² = -84
x = sqrt(-84)
and that did not make any sense for real distances. so, this configuration is actually impossible for a right triangle.
