Ad libitum [116K]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute the -2. multiply-2 with 5x and 8. it will be -10x-16=14+6x. For me, i make small numbers negative or positive than big ones. Add 16 to both sides. it will be -10x=30+6x. Subtract 6x. -10x-6x=-16x. Divide both sides by 16. x=30/16= 1 and 14/16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$5k>22\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\dfrac{5k}{5}>\dfrac{22}{5}\\\\k>4\dfrac{2}{5}\to k>4.4\to k\in(4.4,\ \infty)$

I have 31 stamps in total. I have 4 more 1 cent stamps than 8 cent stamps and twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps. I

Neko [114]

Answer:

There area 14 one cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of 1 cent stamps

y -----> the number of 8 cent stamps

z -----> the number of 12 cent stamps

we know that

0.01x+0.08y+0.12z=1.78 -------> equation A

x=y+4 ------> y=x-4 -----> equation B

x=2z -----> z=0.5x ------> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for x

0.01x+0.08(x-4)+0.12(0.5x)=1.78

0.01x+0.08x-0.32+0.06x=1.78

0.15x=1.78 +0.32

0.15x=2.10

x=14

therefore

There area 14 one cent stamps

Find the degree of the polynomial -m^6-10m^3

Ilya [14]

Answer:

We conclude that:

The degree of the polynomial is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Given the polynomial

$-m^6-10m^3$

To determine

The degree of the polynomial

In order to determine the degree of the polynomial, we need to check the term with the highest of the degree with non-zero coefficients. The degree of an individual term is basically the exponent of the term.

In our case,

The exponents of the terms of this polynomial are, in order, 6, and 3.

Thus, the highest degree (larger exponent) of the term is 6.

Therefore, we conclude that:

The degree of the polynomial is 6.
