Hello.

The symbols | | mean the absolute value, which is keeps the numbers postive.

Of the answers shown, the correct answer is {-8, 8) because |-8 + 2| = 10, because of the absolute value symbols | |. (Also |8 + 2| of course equals 10.)

Which expressions are polynomials? Select each correct answer.
lilavasa [31]
Here's an example

<span>Simplify by collecting like terms: 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 10y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y </span>

<span>Correct. 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5<span>y(3x2 </span>– y) – 10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>28y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 – </span>10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 </span>= −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y </span>

<span>Incorrect. The 4 is distributed to both terms in the parentheses by multiplying each term by 4 resulting in 28y, not 11y. The −5y is similarly distributed to each term in the parentheses, resulting in −15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2. </span>The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

<span>Incorrect. This polynomial can be further simplified by combining the like terms 4<span>x2y </span>and −15<span>yx2. </span>The order of the variables in a term does not matter. The correct answer is </span>

−<span>11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y </span>

<span>Incorrect. Before combining like terms, you must distribute to clear the parentheses. The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

If x = –3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation, which statement best describes the discriminant of the e
natita [175]

Equations don't really have x intercepts, functions or curves do. They're also known as the zeros of the function.  When we set a function equal to zero we get an equation to solve, and the zeros of the function become the solutions or roots of the equation.

If a quadratic equation only has one root, that's a repeated root corresponding to a discriminant of zero.

In this example our equation is something like 2(x+3)^2=0, or expanded

2x^2+12x + 18 = 0

The discriminant d=b^2-4ac here is

d = 12^2 - 4(2)(18) = 0 \quad\checkmark
