Solve 2(4x + 3) < 5x + 21.

1 answer:

5 0

First you simplyify both sides,

8x+6<5x+21

Then you subtract both sides,

8x+(6−5x)<5x+(21−5x)

3x+6<21

Subtract 6 from both sides,

3x+6−6<21−6

3x<15

finally you divide both sides by 3,

$\frac{3x}{3} \ \textless \ \frac{15}{3}$
Your answer is:x<5

Which of the following functions is not a linear

kicyunya [14]

By looking at the degree of the polynomials, we conclude that the option that is not linear is option C.

<h3>Which of the following functions is not a linear function?</h3>

A polynomial is an expression of the form:

$p(x) = a_n*x^n + a_{n-1}*x^{n-1} + ... + a_0$

Where all the exponents are natural numbers.

We define the degree of a polynomial as the largest exponent, and we define a linear function as a polynomial of degree 1.

So a linear function is of the form:

$f(x) = a_1*x + a_0$

Now, if you look at option C, you can see that the degree of that polynomial is 2. So that is not a linear function.

Then the correct option is C.

Find the complete factored form of the polynomial -8a^4b^5+4a^2b^4

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The completely factored polynomial is:

⇒ $-4a^2b^4(2a^2b-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial:

$-8a^4b^5+4a^2b^4$

To factor the given polynomial completely.

Solution:

In order to factor the given polynomial, we will find the greatest common factor of the terms and then factor them out by dividing the term by its G.C.F.

The factors can be listed as:

$-8a^4b^5=-1\times 2\times 2\times 2\times a\times a\times a\times a\times b\times b \times b\times b \times b$
