Option a: polynomial has 5 terms.

Option c: The constant term is 4.

Explanation:

The polynomial is -2xy^{5} +3x^{7} -10x^{3} y^{6} +8x^{6} +4

Option a: Polynomial has 5 terms

From the polynomial, we have,

1st term = -2 x y^{5}

2nd term = 3 x^{7}

3rd term = -10 x^{3} y^{6}

4th term = 8 x^{6}

5th term = 4

Hence, the polynomial has 5 terms.

Thus, Option a is the correct answer.

Option b: The leading coefficient is -2 and the degree of the polynomial is 7.

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the variable with the largest degree.

The degree of the polynomial can be determine by the adding the powers of the variable.

degree of 1st term = -2 x y^{5} = 1+5=6

degree of 2nd term = 3 x^{7} =7

degree of 3rd term = -10 x^{3} y^{6} =3+6=9

degree of 4th term = 8 x^{6} =6

degree of 5th term = 4 =0

Thus, from these 5 terms the highest value is 9 which is the degree of the polynomial.

The polynomial -2xy^{5} +3x^{7} -10x^{3} y^{6} +8x^{6} +4 has a largest degree of 9 and the leading coefficient is -10.

Hence, Option b is not the correct answer.

Option c: The constant term is 4.

The constant term is a term in which variable will not occur.

From the polynomial -2xy^{5} +3x^{7} -10x^{3} y^{6} +8x^{6} +4, we can see that the constant term is 4.

Hence, Option c is the correct answer.

Option d: Polynomial is in decreasing degree order

The decreasing degree order is the degree in which each term is no larger than the degree of the preceding term.

From the polynomial, we have,

degree of 1st term = -2 x y^{5} = 1+5=6

degree of 2nd term = 3 x^{7} =7

degree of 3rd term = -10 x^{3} y^{6} =3+6=9

degree of 4th term = 8 x^{6} =6

degree of 5th term = 4 =0

where the degree of the 3rd term is not less than the 4th term.

Thus, the polynomial is not in decreasing degree order.

Hence, Option d is not the correct answer.

Reagan surveyed a number of her classmates about what time they usually go to bed. Of the fifteen classmates she asked, nine sai
sleet_krkn [62]
9 out of Reagan's 15 classmates go to bed at 10 p.m.

As a fraction, this would be 9/15.

To convert a fraction to a decimal, you just divide the numerator by the denominator.

Thus, 9 ÷ 15 = 0.6

To turn a decimal into a percentage, you multiply the decimal by 100, and then add a percentage sign.

0.6 * 100 = 60%

Therefore, 60% of Reagan's classmates go to bed at 10 p.m.

Hope this helps!

What is the sum of the multiples of 6 between 6 and 999?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Your method is completely correct. The first term will be 6 and each subsequent term can be obtained by adding 6 to the previous one, meaning the common difference is 6. The number of terms is given by the highest number that is divisible by 6 and dividing it by 6; that is 996/6 = 166
Then we simply apply the formula for arithmetic sequence sum:
S = n/2 [2a₁ + (n - 1)d]
S = 166/2 [ 2(6) + (166 - 1)6]
S = 83,166
