Answer:

Degree 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Degree of f(x) = 3

Degree of g(x) = 5

Required

Degree of 2f(x) + 4g(x)

<h2>Analyzing both polynomials</h2><h3>f(x)</h3>

2f(x) means 2 * f(x)

Since 2 is a constant

Multiplying f(x) by 2 will result in a polynomial with a degree of 3

Hence 2f(x) has a degree of 3

<h3 /><h3>g(x)</h3>

4g(x) means 4 * g(x)

Since 4 is also a constant

Multiplying g(x) by 4 will result in a polynomial with a degree of 5

Hence 4g(x) has a degree of 5

Having said that;

When 2 polynomials of different degrees are added together, the degree of the result will be the higher degree of both polynomials;

This means that;

Adding a polynomial of degree 3 and another of degree 5 will result in a polynomial of degree 5

create a perfect square trinomial that can be factored using special patterns. Factor the trinomial and show all work for full c
Lyrx [107]

Answer: 4x^2+12x+9


Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is written as ax^2+bx+c, where

first term ax^2 = square of first term of binomial

second term=bx=twice the product of both terms of binomial.

and third term 'c'=square of last term of binomial

Thus to create a perfect  square trinomial put 'a' and 'c' a square number

Let a=4 and c=9

The required trinomial will be

4x^2+12x+9

=(2x)^2+2(2x)(3)+3^2\\=(2x+3)^2.......\text{[using pattern}(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]\\=(2x+3)(2x+3)

I will answer second attachment and after since I can't see the firs attachment



2nd attachment

if x is negative, then the first number gets infinitely small
look at the second number, the first 2 is -2 which is wrong since it should be +2
3rd option is not because if x=-2, then y=1
answer is D


3rd attachment
2nd: f(x)=60*1.15^x
3rd: no xint
6th: after 7.86 years value tripples
7th maybe: after 8 years value is 183.51, not exatly 184.00


4th attachment
nth score is
f(n)=57+4(n-1)
9th is
f(9)=57+4(9-1)
57+32=89
answer is C 89


5th
f(t)=23000(1.02)^t
t=time in years from 23000
