Question:
You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?
Answer: 4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x
First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)
Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)
If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish
Then,
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish
Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish
1/ 10 of 40
= ( 1/10) × 40
= 4 miles
For this case we have the following polynomial:

To answer the question, what we must do is rewrite the polynomial in its standard form.
We have then that the polynomial will be given by:

Therefore, we have the ordered polynomial in descending form of exponents.
Therefore, the second term of the polynomial is:

Answer:
The second term of the polynomial is given by:

The correct answer would be J

Answer:
The answer to your question is x-axis, y-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question just remember the equation of the slope
m = 
Then:
If the numerator is zero, the line is parallel to the x-axis and the slope will be zero.
If the denominator is zero, the line is parallel to the y-axis and the slope will be undefined.
