How to solve this showing all work ! Also explain why they aren’t polynomials if you can :)

Lesechka [4]3 years ago

Polynomials are linear combinations of positive integer powers. For example,

x^{100}+30x^2-\sqrt 2\,x+21

is a polynomial, but

-x^{-1}-4x^\pi+x^{3/2}

is not.

(In case you're unfamiliar with the term, a linear combination of two quantities is the sum of scaled versions of those quantities, e.g. a general linear combination of a and b is k_1a+k_2b, where k_1,k_2 are any numbers.)

8x^2-18\sqrt x+5x-3 is not a polynomial; the offending term is -18\sqrt x, or -18x^{1/2}.

A minor league baseball team plays 122 games in a season. If the team won 14 more than three times as many games as they​ lost,
Leviafan [203]
W + L = 122
W = 3L + 14

3L + 14 + L = 122
4L + 14 = 122
4L = 122 - 14
4L = 108
L = 108/4
L = 27 <=== they lost 27 games

W = 3L + 14
W = 3(27) + 14
W = 81 + 14
W = 95 <=== they won 95 games

Draw two polygons that have corresponding angles that are all congruent but are not similar to prove that angle congruence is no
Marina86 [1]

There are infinitely many ways to do this. One such way is to draw a very thin stretched out rectangle (say one that is very tall) and a square. Example: the rectangle is 100 by 2, while the square is 4 by 4.

Both the rectangle and the square have the same corresponding angle measures. All angles are 90 degrees.

However, the figures are not similar. You cannot scale the rectangle to have it line up with the square. The proportions of the sides do not lead to the same ratio

100/4 = 25

2/4 = 0.5

so 100/4 = 2/4 is not a true equation. This numerically proves the figures are not similar.

side note: if you are working with triangles, then all you need are two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. If you have more than three sides for the polygon, then you'll need to confirm the sides are in proportion along with the angles being congruent as well.
