Answer:
3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+9=24
4x=24-9
4x=15
x=15/4
x=3.75
Answer: -3.125
Step-by-step explanation: -1 divided by 8 = .125
Answer:
C and E
Step-by-step explanation:
A polynomial is a function where the only operation is an exponent on the variable. It can have just one term or many terms. For example, x^2 is a polynomial but x^2 / x+3 is not since it also contains division. This is a rational. Using this definition then only C and E are polynomials.
Choice A has a rational term. This is not polynomial.
Choice B has an exponent of -2 which is actually division. This is rational and not polynomial.
Choice D has a radical term with the variable. This is not polynomial.
It wouldn't let me post, so I screenshotted:
Note that when dividing, and the base is the same, you can subtract the power signs.
(5^5)/(5^2) = 5^(5 - 2)
5 - 2 = 3
5^3 = a^b
Simplify.
5^3 = 5 x 5 x 5
5 x 5 x 5 = 125
c = 125
