In a polynomials equation do you add the exponents if they are different

You can only add exponents if you are multiplying two of the same variable together. For example,
x^{12} \times x^4 = x^{16}

You take them away if you are dividing.
<span>x^{12} \div x^4 = x^{8}

In a polynomial equation, you can add together two of the same variable if they have the same exponent
</span>3x^4 + 7x^4 = 10x^4

Or you can take them away in a similar fashion,
<span>3x^4 - 7x^4 = -4x^4

But you cannot add two (or more) different exponents,
</span>6+4x+7x^2 = 6+4x+7x^2 (it does not get any simpler)

I hope this has answered your question, if not, leave a comment and I'll update the answer.

Find the factors of 5x2+20x+20
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum = 20

Product = 5*20 = 100

Factors = 10 , 10   {10*10 = 100 ; 10+10 = 20}

5x² + 20x + 20 = <u>5x² + 10x</u> + <u>10x + 10*2</u>

= 5x(x + 2) + 10(x + 2)

= (x + 2)(5x + 10)

The answer is 3x^2-19x+1

(-4x+3)-(7x-3x^2-1)
-12x+7x+3x^2+1

Combine like terms:
3x^2+(-12x+-7x)+1
= 3x^2+-19x+1

Pls give all numbers

Turkey dinner has to be zero as 0/? = 0 and it would be undefined if it was ?/0

Dinner plate would be 0 as ? * 0 * ? = 0

Radish is ?^2 cake as solving for radish will get that

Cake will be 4 as turkey is 0

Since cake is 4, radish is 16

Let’s plug them in to figure it out

0 / 4 = 0 ✅
16 * 0 * 4 = 0 ✅
4 = 16 / 4 ✅
4 / 4 = 0 + 1 ✅
0 + 16 * 4 = 64

Turkey = 0
Cake = 4
Radish = 16
Dinner plate = 0
? = 64
