Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

"Polynomial" means consisting of several terms, 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 binomial.

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

In C, we only see one term (5), and so it is a monomial, 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 binomial.

9x+3y=18 whats is the equation when solved for y

lidiya [134]

Answer:

y=6-3x

Step-by-step explanation:

first subtract 9x from 9x+3y=18

-9x -9x

so you get 3y=18-9x or 3y=-9x+18 then divide both sides by 3

so you get y=6-3x hope this helps :)

PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION 1/3 x + y = 4 SOLVE FOR Y( THIS MEANS GET THE Y BY ITSELF.)

Marrrta [24]

Subtract 1/3x from the left side of the equation and subtract it from the right side of the equation. So it would be y = 4 - 1/3x

1) Solve the following system of equations algebraically. Give your solution as two

Bad White [126]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

$y = x ^ 2 + 7x + 12\\y = 2x + 8$

Equating both equations we have:

$x ^ 2 + 7x + 12 = 2x + 8\\x ^ 2 + 7x-2x + 12-8 = 0\\x ^ 2 + 5x + 4 = 0$

We must find the solutions, for this we factor. We look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in 4 and when added, result in 5. These numbers are 4 and 1:

$4 + 1 = 5\\4 * 1 = 4$

Then, the factorized equation is of the form:

$(x + 4) (x + 1) = 0$

Thus, the solutions are:

$x_ {1} = - 4\\x_ {2} = - 1$

We look for solutions for the variable "y":

$y_ {1} = 2 (-4) + 8 = -8 + 8 = 0\\y_ {2} = 2 (-1) + 8 = -2 + 8 = 6$

Thus, the system solutions are given by: $(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 4,0)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 1,6)$

ANswer:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 4,0)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 1,6)$
