1.) Let's say that the circle on the graph below represents x. The arrow is pointing to all the numbers greater than x, which happens to be on -2. If it points right, this means that x can equal to any number greater than -2. So your answer is x > -2.
2.) For inequalities such as these, you can simplify just like what you do for normal equations. Let's isolate x.

Answer:
substitute that value for x in the polynomial and see if it evaluates to zero
Step-by-step explanation:
A "zero" of a polynomial is a value of the polynomial's variable that make the expression become zero when it is evaluated. As an almost trivial example, consider the polynomial x-3. The value x = 3 is a zero because substituting that value for x makes the expression evaluate as zero.
3 -3 = 0
___
Evaluating polynomials can be done different ways. Straight substitution for the variable is one way. Using synthetic division by x-a (where "a" is the value of interest) is another way. This latter method is completely equivalent to rewriting the polynomial to Horner form for evaluation.

Answer:
The expected value for the player to play one time is -$0.05.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value of a random variable <em>X</em> is given by the formula:
The American roulette wheel has the 38 numbers, {i = 00, 0, 1, 2, ..., 34, 35, and 36}, marked on equally spaced slots.
The probability that the ball stops on any of these 38 numbers is same, i.e.
P (X = i) = .
It is provided that a a player bets $1 on a number.
If the player wins, the player keeps the dollar and receives an additional $35.
And if the player losses, the dollar is lost too.
So, the probability distribution is as follows:
<em> X </em>: $35 -$1
P (<em>X</em>) :
Compute the expected value of the game as follows:
Thus, the expected value for the player to play one time is -$0.05.
