Answer:Answer: Isabella buys 2 paintbrushes and 3 jars of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isabella can buy together 5 paintbrushes ( p ) and jars of paint ( p ) : j + p = 5, She can`t buy 4 items ( because 4 * $0.99 = $3.96 < $4.87 ) and she also can`t buy 6 items ( 6 * $0.95 = $5.70 > $4.87 ). So: p = 5 - j. Another equation is: 0.95 * ( 5 - j ) + 0.99 j = 4.87, 4.75 - 0.95 j + 0.99 j = 4.87; 0.04 j = 0.12; j = 0.12 : 0.04; j = 3, p = 5 - 3 = 2. We can prove it: 0.95 * 2 + 0.99 * 3 = 1.90 + 2.97 = 4.87.

(Hope this helps!!!!)

Write each polynomial in standard form. Then give the leading coefficient. You may need to combine like terms before writing the

Bond [772]

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a polynomial in standard form, put the degree that are the greatest first

So here it would be

${x}^{5} + 4 {x}^{3} - 3 {x}^{2} + 10$

Remember constant are numbers that you learned back in elementary,

Numbers like 10,90,4,1,0,-3 etc.

Remember that constant are basically represented like this

$k \times {x}^{0}$

For example, 10 is represented like

$10 \times {x}^{0}$

Since 0 is the smallest degree possible, for a polynomial, constants are the last term of a polynomial in standard form
