Marcus states that the polynomial expression 3x3 – 4x2y + y2 + 2 is in standard form. Ariel states that it should be y2 – 4x2y +

lubasha [3.4K]

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of its terms.
The power of a term is the sum of the powers of all the variables in a term.
A polynomial is written starting with the greatest power in standard form.
In the first case, the power of the first term is 3, the power of the second is 3 (2 from x + 1 from y) but the power of x has decreased so it is the second term, and then so on.
In the second case, the power is starting form 2 and then increasing to 3. This is incorrect.
Therefore, Marcus' suggestion is correct.

The question is not clear, but it is possible to obtain distance, s, from the given function. This, I would show.

Answer:

s = 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(t) = t³ - 8t² + 27t

Differentiating f(t), we have

f'(t) = 3t² - 16 t + 27

At t = 0

f'(t) = 27

This is the required obtainaible distance, s.

Bess has $2.80 in quarters and dimes. The number of dimes is 7 less than the number of quarters. Find the number of quarters and

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

3 dimes and 10 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 7 dimes, then the number of dimes and quarters is the same, and the total increases to $3.50. A dime and a quarter have a value together of $0.35. Since there are equal numbers, the value $3.50 must be made up of some quantity of groups with a value of $0.35. That number of groups must be ...

... $3.50/$0.35 = 10

Thus, there are 10 quarters and 10-7 = 3 dimes.

_____

<em>Using an equation</em>

Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the amount Bess has is ...

... 0.10(q -7) +0.25q = 2.80

... 0.35q - 0.70 = 2.80

... 0.35q = 3.50 . . . . . add 0.70 . . . . . . . this should look familiar

... q = 3.50/0.35 = 10

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST: What is the local minimum value of the function g(x)=x^4-5x^2+4? (Round answer to the nearest hundredth)

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you can find where the first derivative is 0 to find the critical points

g'(x) = ( x^4 -5x^2 +4)' = 4x³-10x

g'(x) =0, make y =0 to find find where g'(x) is 0

4x³-10x =0 , factor 2x

2x(2x²-5)= 0 , each factor must be 0

2x= 0, so x= 0

2x²-5 =0, so x = ±√5/2

we now have 3 critical points -√5/2, 0, and √5/2

make intervals (-∞, -√5/2), (-√5/2, 0) , (0, √5/2) and (√5/2, +∞)

pick a point to test on each interval: -2, -1, 1 and 2 for example, and

calculate g'(x) = 4x³-10x at those points

for x= -2 we have 4(-2)³-10(-2) = -12 , negative number, decrease

for x= -1 we have 4(-1)³-10(-1) =6, positive number, increase

for x= 1 we have 4(1)³-10(1) = -6, negative number, decrease

for x= 2 we have 4(2)³-10(2) = 12, positive number, increase

we went from a decrease to an increase on intervals (-∞, -√5/2), (-√5/2, 0) so x= - √5/2 ≈ -1.58 is a minimum

we went from a decrease to an increase on intervals (0, √5/2), (√5/2, +∞) so

x= √5/2 ≈ 1.58 is a minimum as well
