Once again if the numbers after x are supposed to be exponents(the raising power) then the answer will be -5

<u>Answer:</u>

-5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In a polynomial, the coefficient of the term with the highest degree or power is called the leading coefficient of the polynomial.

We are given a polynomial 2x^6-6x^3-5x^7+7x^{-11}+x^2+35. It is a good idea to rearrange this polynomial with powers in a descending order.

-5x^7 +2x^6-6x^3+x^2+7x^{-11} +35

As we can see the highest power being 7 so the coefficient of the term with the power 7 is -5. Therefore, -5 is the leading coefficient.

Which describes the slope of this line?
sergeinik [125]
I take the points that you gave. Let named A(0,-3) and B(2,1)

The slope coefficient is  S= (yb-ya)/(xb-xa)

S= (1-(-3))/(2-0) => S= (1+3)/2 = 4/2= +2 => S= +2

The correct answer is     positive slope
Good luck!!!

Tuli is 10 years younger than Emily. The product of their
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

a² - 14a - 15 = 0 (quadratic equation)

Emily's age = 15 years

Tuli's age = 15 - 10 = 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let

Emily age = a

Tuli age =  a - 10

Two years ago their ages will be as follows.

Emily's age = a - 2

Tuli's age = a - 10 - 2 = a - 12

The product of their ages 2 years ago is 39.

(a - 2)(a - 12) = 39

a² - 12a - 2a + 24 - 39 = 0

a² - 14a - 15 = 0 (quadratic equation)

To get a

a² + a - 15a - 15 = 0

a(a + 1) - 15(a + 1)

(a + 1)(a - 15)

a = -1 or 15

we can only use 15 as it is positive.

Martin was given this expression to simplify: 23x + xy – y + 3y + 5 – 20x + 6xy He simplified the expression to: 43x + 7xy −3y W
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

23x + xy - y + 3y + 5 - 20x + 6xy = 23x - 20x + xy  + 6xy -y + 3y + 5

                                                     = 3x + 7xy + 2y + 5

Errors:1) The combined coefficients of the x terms should be 3x, not 43x

2) The coefficients of the y terms have been multiplied.

3) The constant was left off.
