Nonlinear. it is a quadratic equation therefore yields a parabola
1 notebook costs $3.45
let's turn this into 2 equations, n being notebook price, and b being binder price ->
mandy -> 3n + b = 5.85
jordan -> 2n + b = 4.65
we need to take one equation, simplify for b, and plug it into the other equation, let's take jordan's equation for this ->
b = 4.65 - 2n
plug it into mandy's equation
3n + (4.65 - 2n) = 5.85
simpify until you get n = 1.20
take this and plug it back into jordan's equation ->
2(1.20) + b = 4.65
simplify until you get b = 2.25
plus this value into mnady's equation ->
3n + (2.25) = 5.85
simplify until you get that n = 2.25
Points pointed and labeled !! I hope this helps and you can use to reference in the future !
True. because it is still 6 away from 0 no matter what way you go
Answer:
a. Degree 4; 2 terms
b. Degree 2; 3 terms
c. Degree 3; 1 term
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, all you need is a few definitions. The "degree" of a polynomial is just the highest exponent you see, and be careful with this, because sometimes the exponents won't be arranged from high to low. In this case, they are. In a polynomial, a "term" is basically anything that sits between a plus/minus operation (i.e in 5x + 4, 5x and 4 are both "terms").
a. What's the highest exponent you see? 4. So the degree is 4. You have 5x^4 and 8 separated by a minus sign, so that'll be 2 terms.
b. The highest exponent here is just 2, so it's a degree 2 polynomial. Two minus signs, so count 'em up: 3 terms.
c. Highest exponent is 3, and since 9m^3 sits on its own, you only have the one term.
Note that something like 3abc is one term. 3a/b is also one term. So is 4ab^2cd. If it's being multiplied or divided, they're together like a family. Addition or subtraction separates terms; multiplication and division don't.
