Arrange the following polynomial into descending order for x, then interpret the degree of the 3rd term. 2xy4 + 2x2y − 3y2 + 10x
malfutka [58]
To arrange the given polynomial in descending order of x, we only look at the exponent of x in each term and then write it in decreasing order of the value. We do as follows:

2xy^4 + 2x^2y − 3y^2 + 10x^3<span>
10x^3 + 2x^2 + 2xy^4 - 3y^2

The degree of the third term would be 5. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables involved in the term.

If you begin with the basic equation of a vertical parabola:  y-k=a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex, then that equation, when the vertex is (-3,-2), is 

y + 2 = a (x + 3)^2.  If we solve this for y, we get

y        = a(x+3)^2 - 2.  Thus, eliminate answers A and D.  That leaves B, since B correctly shows (x+3)^2.

Which of the following is being constructed in the image.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

  3. a line perpendicular to a given line through a point not on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

The point not on the line suggests that choices 1 and 3 are possibilities. The fact that the dotted line is not parallel (and is perpendicular) to the solid line suggests that choice 3 is applicable and choice 1 is not.

The short arcs are equidistant from the end points of the chord that intercepts the larger arc. Hence the line through the crossing point of the short arcs and the point on the other side of the line will be the perpendicular bisector of the chord, and will be perpendicular to the solid line. Creating that perpendicular is likely the purpose of the construction.
