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

In the figure, PQ is parallel to RS. The length of RP is 2 cm; the length of PT is 18 cm; the length of QT is 27 cm. What is the
Sidana [21]

Step 1    

<u>Find the value of TS</u>

we know that

if PQ is parallel to RS. then triangles TRS and TPQ are similar

so

\frac{TR}{TP} =\frac{TS}{QT}

solve for TS

TS =\frac{TR*QT}{TP}

we have

RP=2\ cm\\TP=18\ cm\\QT=27\ cm

TR=TP+RP\\TR=18+2=20\ cm

substitute

TS =\frac{20*27}{18}  

TS =30\ cm

Step 2

<u>Find the value of SQ</u>

we know that

SQ=TS-QT

we have

TS =30\ cm

QT=27\ cm

substitute

SQ=30\ cm-27\ cm=3\ cm

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the value of SQ is 3\ cm
