I assume you want the leading coefficient because there is only 1.

The leading coefficient is always in front of the term with the greatest exponent.

Leading coefficient = -1.

The degree of this function is 9. It is a ninth degree polynomial function. Why 9? It is a 9th degree polynomial because 9 is the greatest power.

Please help (Determine the slope of the line. Show the work you did to find the slope.)

Scrat [10]

Answer:

slope of line is 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the ratio of the change in the y-values over the change in the x-values

in this problem, if you go from pt A to pt B, you rise by 3 and go to the right by 5, thus slope of 3/5

if you go from pt B to pt C, you rise by 6 and go to the right by 10

however, 6/10 can be reduced to 3/5

if you start at point (0,2) and rise by 3 and run to the right by 5 you are at point (5,5)

change in y-values is 5-2 or 3

change in x-values is 5-0 or 5

(5-2)/(5-0) = 3/5

Find the mean median mode 12,9,12,11,10,18,7,19,13,19

Nady [450]

Mean : The average of all the data in a set.

Median : The value in a set which is most close to the middle of a range.

Mode : The value which occures most frequently in a data set.

12,9,12,11,10,18,7,19,13,19

Mean = 13 (Average)

Median = 12 (Middle)

Mode = 12, 19 (most common)

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle? Enter your answer in the box.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

let h be hypotenuse, then

h² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{100}$ = 10

The hypotenuse is 10 ft

A rectangle has a length of 6.5m and a width of 7.3m what is the area and the perimeter

Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given:</h3>

Length of the rectangle = 6.5 m

Width of the rectangule = 7.3 m

First case,

Area of the rectangle

= length × width

= 6.5 m × 7.3 m

= 47.45 sq.m (Ans)(i)

Second case,

Perimeter of the rectangle

= 2(length + width)

= 2(6.5 + 7.3)m

= 2 × 13.8 m

= 27.6 m (Ans)(ii)
