Which expression is not a polynomial? A. 3x + 5 B. 2/5x - 21 C. 5 D. x^-3 + 5x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anettt [7]2 years ago

Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

"<em>Polynomial</em>" means <em>consisting of several terms</em>, or more than one term.

In A, we see that there are 2 terms (3x and 5), and so it is a polynomial, specifically a <em>binomial.</em>

In B, we also see 2 terms (2/5x and -21), and so it is also a polynomial, specifically a <em>binomial.</em>

In C, we only see one term (5), and so it is a <em>monomial</em>, or having only one term.

In D, we can see 2 terms (x^-3 and 5x), and so it is also a polynomial, specifically a <em>binomial</em>.

Examine the following steps. Which do you think you might use to prove the identity Tangent (x) = StartFraction tangent (x) + ta
Over [174]

Answer:

The correct options are;

1) Write tan(x + y) as sin(x + y) over cos(x + y)

2) Use the sum identity for sine to rewrite the numerator

3) Use the sum identity for cosine to rewrite the denominator

4) Divide both the numerator and denominator by cos(x)·cos(y)

5) Simplify fractions by dividing out common factors or using the tangent quotient identity

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the required identity is Tangent (x + y) = (tangent (x) + tangent (y))/(1 - tangent(x) × tangent (y)), we have;

tan(x + y) = sin(x + y)/(cos(x + y))

sin(x + y)/(cos(x + y)) = (Sin(x)·cos(y) + cos(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y) - sin(x)·sin(y))

(Sin(x)·cos(y) + cos(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y) - sin(x)·sin(y)) = (Sin(x)·cos(y) + cos(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y) - sin(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y))

(Sin(x)·cos(y) + cos(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y) - sin(x)·sin(y))/(cos(x)·cos(y)) = (tan(x) + tan(y))(1 - tan(x)·tan(y)

∴ tan(x + y) = (tan(x) + tan(y))(1 - tan(x)·tan(y)

Given log3 2=0.631 log3 7=1.771 what is log3 14?
Leni [432]
In logarithm, inverse operations are applied.
log_3{14} =  log_3{7} +   log_3{14} \\ log_3{14} = 0.631 + 1.771 \\log_3{14} = 2.402
