To know which of the following expressions are polynomials, let us look at the definition of a polynomial:
Polynomial is derived from poly- (which means "many") and -nomial (meaning "term"), so it says "many terms".
For an instance:
is a polynomial, but
is not a polynomial because it contains single term only.
We must keep in mind that in polynomial it can have variables, constants, and exponents but it can never have division by a variable.
Now lets, look at the
since it has got one term it can not be a polynomial.
: it has got <em>more than one term</em> therefore, <em>it is a polynomial. </em>
: again it has got just one term so it is not a polynomial.
: Since it has got <em>more than one term</em>, so again<em> it is a polynomial. </em>
A1 = first term = 8
<u>Plug in a1 = 8:</u>
an = 8 + (n - 1)d
<u>FInd d:</u>
Given that a2 = 5
5 = 8 + (2-1)d
5 = 8 + d
d = -3
<u>Plug in d = -3:</u>
an = 8 -3(n - 1)
Answer: an = 8 -3(n - 1) ; <span>n ≥ 1</span>
Pemdas
in the parenthasees, we have 2*3 which is 6
then 6+21=27
now we have
(1/3)(27) times 3^2-5.6
exponents,, 3^2=9
(1/3)(27)(9)-5.6
multiply
81-5.6
minus
75.4
Answer:
It requires of two equations
