Well, zero is between negative and positive numbers. Negative number are less than zero and positive numbers. Positive number are greater than negative number and zero. And, zero is greater than negative number but smaller than positive number.
Negative number < Zero < Positive number
The answer to your question is D
Answer to question 1 is D
answer to question 2 is A
The answer is 2x(2x²+x+1).
When we subtract polynomials we combine like terms:
(9x³+2x²-5x+4)-(5x³-7x+4)
9x³-5x³=4x³
2x²- 0 = 2x²
-5x--7x=-5x+7x=2x
4-4=0
This gives us
4x³+2x²+2x
Each of these is divisible by 2, and each has an x, so we factor those out:
2x( )
4x³/2x = 2x²:
2x(2x² )
2x²/2x=x:
2x(2x²+x )
2x/2x = 1:
2x(2x²+x+1)
