The problem is that 7^2 is 7*7, and the same for 8^2. The right answer is the square root of 15, or 3.87
Answer:x=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you want the leading coefficient because there is only 1.
The leading coefficient is always in front of the term with the greatest exponent.
Leading coefficient = -1.
The degree of this function is 9. It is a ninth degree polynomial function. Why 9? It is a 9th degree polynomial because 9 is the greatest power.
f(5) means to replace x in the equation with 5 then solve.
f(x) = x^2 +2x
f(5) = 5^2 + 2(5)
f(5) = 25 +10
f(5) = 35
The answer is D)35
