Which polynomial lists the powers in descending order? A. –10 + 4x3 – 4x5 + 2x4 + x7 B. x7 – 4x5 + 2x4 + 4x3 – 10 C. x7 + 4x3 +

Artist 52 [7]

The answer for the exercise shown above is the option B, which is: $x^{7} -4 x^{5} +2 x^{4} +4 x^{3}- 10$
The explanation is shown below:
To list the powers of the polynomial given in the problem above in descending order, you must write the terms from the highest degree to the lowest degree. You have that the highest degree is $7
$ and the lowest degree is $0
$ (Because $-10 x^{0} =-10(1)=-10$ . Therefore, you have that the correct option is the option B.

Question 1 WRONG With what number must 3.475817 be multiplied in order to obtain the number 34,758.17? A 100 1,000 10,000 D 100,

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1 - Option C - 10,000

2 - 3x+5 will be 12 more than 3x-7.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find : With what number must 3.475817 be multiplied in order to obtain the number 34,758.17?

Solution :

The number 3.475817 is multiplied by number to obtain 34,758.17.

As we see that, the decimal is moved four places to the right.

Which means the number is multiplied by 10000.

i.e. $3.475817\times 10000=34,758.17$

Therefore, option C is correct.

2) To find : How much greater is the value of 3x+5 than the value of 3x−7?

Solution ;

Assuming that x is the same value in each equation,

In order to determine the difference between the two values,

We ignore the 3x part as it is the same on both of the equations.

So, from 5 to -7 i.e. 7+5=12.

Therefore, 3x+5 will be 12 more than 3x-7.

What is the rate of decay for the function f(x) =2(0.95)^x ( x is on top of the parentheses)

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The decay rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a substance is decaying at the rate of r% per hour from the initial value of P for t hours, then the final value of the substance is given by the function

$f(t) = P(1 - \frac{r}{100})^{t}$ ........... (1)

Comparing this equation with the original equation given as

$f(x) = 2(0.95)^{x}$ ............ (2) we get,

$(1 - \frac{r}{100}) = 0.95$

⇒ $\frac{r}{100} = 0.05$

⇒ r = 5%.

Therefore, the decay rate is 5%. (Answer)
