Answer: ruler cost $12
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Let cost of ruler be represented as r
and cost of pencil be represented as p
we were given that
4 rulers and a pencil and these cost the same as 2 rulers and 4 pencils which is expressed as
4r + p = 2r+ 4p
and cost of pencil= $8
therefore
sTEP 2--- Solving
4r+ 8 = 2r+ 4 x8
4r+ 8 = 2r+ 32
4r - 2r= 32-8
2r= 24
r= 24/2 = r= $12
The question is the thing that needs help. What does that hanging "a leading 2" mean? And rational real coefficients? Obviously if they're rational they're gonna be real, but really.
I would say "a leading 2" means the highest power of x has a coefficient to two, which is none of the above.
The last two are of degree two, which is the lowest degree. They both have integer coefficients, so are necessarily real and rational as well.
Neither has a leading 2 as far as I can tell. The last one is monic (a leading coefficient of 1). I like monic polynomials so I'd pick that one, but that doesn't make it right.
None of the above
15 + 3 / 2 = 9.
