First put it in decreasing power according to x.
x^4-5x+8+x^2
=x^4+x^2-5x+8
Now this question is asking what is the highest degree of x you see in this function.
4 of course.
Therefore the answer to his question is degree of 4.
Done!
If he puts 300 sunfish into the pond, he will put 225 perch in the pond.
<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>
A ratio is the comparison of one thing to another. Generally, ratios compares value.
They store the children pond keeping a ratio of 4 sunfish to 3 perch. Therefore, the ratio of sunfish to perch will be as follows
If he 300 sunfish into the pond , the number of perch that will be in the pond can be calculated as follows:
cross multiply
4x = 900
x = 900 / 4
x = 225
