Because otherwise the two circles you build wouldn't have any intersection!

You have to draw two circles, centered at the endpoints of the segment, and connect their intersection.

If the radii are less than half the length of the circle, the circles will have no interserction.

Write the polynomial in standard form.
sp2606 [1]

The standard form is:

4x^5+3x^2+3

Degree = 5, leading coefficient=4

The 5th degree polynomial is:

Quintic function

it is a trinomial

<u>What is  standard form of a polynomial?</u>

When expressing a polynomial in its standard form, the greatest degree of terms are written first, followed by the next degree, and so on.

So, standard form is:

4x^5+3x^2+3

To find the degree of the polynomial, add up the exponents of each term and select the highest sum ( if there are more than 1 variable in single term) or highest power of variable

Degree = 5

In a polynomial, the leading term is the term with the highest power of x.

So, leading coefficient=4

The 5th degree polynomial is:

Quintic function

It has 3 terms. so, it is a trinomial

So.. both sides divided by 4.
Now u have 14/68=x/6 -5
Multiply all by 6
Now u have 84/68=x-30
21/17+510/17=x
531/17=x
X=31 4/17

Find the first four terms of the sequence given by the following an=57-4(n-1),n=1,2,3
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

57, 53, 49, 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute for the n for n=1,2,3,4 so the first term is 57-4(1-1) so =57-4(0) so

a(1) = 57-0 = 57  so that is the 1st term

2nd term 57-4(2-1) so =57-4(1) so   a(2) = 57-4 = 53, etc.

Answer:

(4,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plot it or like I did it like this

Since moving right or left is X axis, just add 5 to -1 becuase its ont he X axis

Then for the bottom and up, thats Y so subtract  that to the Y axis so 2-6=-4
