Answer 1

Complete question is;

Match the polynomial in the left column with its descriptive feature in the

right column

A.) x³ + 3x² - 2x + 7

B.) 3a³ b ^(6)

C.) 3x⁴ – 9x³ + 5x^(8)

D.) 7a³ b ² + 18ab² c – 9a³

E.) 2x^(5) – 9x³ + 8x^(7)

F.) 4x^(8) – 7x² + 9

G.) x² − 7

I. 9th degree monomial

II. Constant term of −7

III. 7th degree polynomial

IV. Leading coefficient of 4

V. Four terms

VI. 5th degree polynomial

VII. Equivalent to 5x^(8) + 3x⁴ – 9x³

Answer:

A) For polynomial x³ + 3x² - 2x + 7 : Option V - 4 Terms

B) For polynomial 3a³ b ^(6) : option I - 9th degree monomial

C) For the polynomial 3x⁴ – 9x³ + 5x^(8) : Option VII - Equivalent to 5x^(8) + 3x⁴ – 9x³

D) For the polynomial 7a³b² + 18ab²

c – 9a³ : Option VI - 5th degree polynomial.

E) For the polynomial 2x^(5) – 9x³ + 8x^(7) : Option III - 7th degree polynomial.

F) for the polynomial 4x^(8) – 7x² + 9 : Option IV - Leading coefficient of 4

F) For the polynomial x² − 7 : Option II - Constant term of −7

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial x³ + 3x² - 2x + 7 is Option V - 4 Terms

B) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial 3a³ b ^(6) is option I - 9th degree monomial. This is because the sum of the powers of a and b is 9.

C) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial 3x⁴ – 9x³ + 5x^(8) is Option VII - Equivalent to 5x^(8) + 3x⁴ – 9x³

D) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial 7a³ b ² + 18ab² c – 9a³ is Option VI - 5th degree polynomial. This is because the highest sum of powers attached to a and b in a figure is 2 + 3 = 5.

E) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial 2x^(5) – 9x³ + 8x^(7) is Option III - 7th degree polynomial. This is because the highest power of x is 7.

F) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial 4x^(8) – 7x² + 9 is Option IV: Leading coefficient of 4. This is because the coefficient attached to the largest power of x is 4.

G) Most appropriate matching descriptive feature for the polynomial

x² − 7 is Option II - Constant term of −7
