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.

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x-5)

The constants of a polynomial is the term that has no variable attached to it.

<h3>The constant term</h3>

To determine the constant, we simply multiply the constant term in each factor of the polynomial.

So, we have:

<h3 /><h3>Polynomial P(x) = (x-2)(x-4)(x-5)</h3>

$Constant = -2 \times -4 \times -5$

$Constant = -40$

Hence, the constant is -40

<h3>Polynomial P(x) = (x-2)(x-4)(x+5)</h3>

$Constant = -2 \times -4 \times 5$

$Constant = 40$

Hence, the constant is 40

<h3>Polynomial P(x) =1/2(x-2)(x-4)(x+5)</h3>

$Constant = \frac 12 \times -2 \times -4 \times 5$

$Constant = 20$

Hence, the constant is 20

<h3>Polynomial P(x) = 5(x-2)(x-4)(x+5)</h3>

$Constant = 5 \times -2 \times -4 \times 5$

$Constant = 200$

Hence, the constant is 200

$Constant = -5 \times -2 \times -4 \times 5$

$Constant = -200$

Hence, the constant is -200

Fill in the table using this function rule y= 18-3x

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1:15 2:12 3:9 5:3

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is plug in the # under the letter x , and plug it into the equation. For example 18 - 3 x 1 , is just saying what is 18 - 3 . Another example would be 18 - 3 x 2 . the equation is simply just 18 - 6 . Just plug in the x numbers in the equation. Hope my answer helped , and good luck! : )

4. If N is the set of natural numbers that are factors of 16, choose the selection below that correctly shows

Lostsunrise [7]

The set of factors of 16 is={1,2,4,8,16}.So option(1) is correct

Natural numbers are those that start with 1 and go on indefinitely. In other words, natural numbers are counting numbers that do not include 0 or any negative or fractional numbers. Natural numbers are numbers like 1, 6, 89, 345, and so on.

What exactly are the factors?

A factor is a number that divides another number with no remainder. In other words, if multiplying two whole numbers results in a product, the multiplied numbers are factors of the product because the product is divisible by them. There are two methods for locating factors: multiplication and division.

Given in the question that, N is the set of natural numbers that are factors of 16

factors of 16 are = 1,2,4,8,16

so the set of factors of 16 is={1,2,4,8,16}
