Answer:

the polynomial has degree 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the degree of a polynomial is given by the degree of its leading term (the term with largest degree). Recall as well that the degree of a term is the maximum number of variables that appear in it.

So, let's examine each of the terms in the given polynomial, and count the number of variables they contain to find their individual degrees. then pick the one with maximum degree, and that its degree would give the actual degree of the entire polynomial.

1) term  2\,x^4\,y^2  contains four variables "x" and two variables "y", so a total of six. Then its degree is: 6

2) term  9\,x^2\,y^5  contains two variables "x" and five variables "y", so a total of seven. Then its degree is: 7

3) term  -3\,x^4\,y^4  contains four variables "x" and four variables "y", so a total of eight. Then its degree is: 8

This last term is therefore the leading term of the polynomial (the term with largest degree) and the one that gives the degree to the entire polynomial.

How do you solve 2m-10=44+8m
Damm [24]

Answer:

m = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

2m-10=44+8m

Subtract 2m from each side

2m-2m-10=44+8m-2m

-10 = 44+6m

Subtract 44 from each side

-10-44 = 44-44+6m

-54 = 6m

Divide by 6

-54/6 = 6m/6

-9 = m

zzz [600]

Answer:

Sasha can look at the graph and check to see that when she plots the points on the graph, they end up as a straight line. She can also draw a table to test the values and see if when you divide y/x you get the same answer for all of them.
