Answer:

Always

Always

Sometimes

Never

Step-by-step explanation:

P(X) + Q(X)

Sum of two polynomials is always a polynomial.

For example, Let P(x) = 3x² and Q(x) = 5x

$ \implies P(x) + Q(x) = 3x² + 5x

This is again a polynomial.

In other words, we can say that Polynomial is closed under addition.

P(x) . Q(x)

Product of two polynomials is again a polynomial.

Let P(x) = 2x and Q(x) = a constant function, 5

Then the product = 10x, is again a polynomial.

Multiplication of two polynomials is closed.

P(x) / Q(x)

This need not always be a polynomial. When Q(x) = a constant function zero, i.e., Q(x) = 0, then the function is not defined.

But let's say P(x) = 5x² and Q(x) = x.

$ \frac{P(x)}{Q(x)} $ = $ \frac{5x^2}{x} $ = 5x, a polynomial.

So, $ \frac{P(x)}{Q(x)} $ is a polynomial sometimes.

We can, say Division is not always closed.

1/Q(x)

This could never be a polynomial. This is not even in the form of a polynomial. So, $ \frac{1}{Q(x)} $ is never a polynomial.

Hence, the answer.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

2.4 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

Araceli uses 9.6 pints of blue paint and white paints, that means the total volume of paint is 9.6 pints

If Three fourths of this amount is blue paint ,

Then  \frac{3}{4} X 9.6=7.2 pints

7.2 pints of blue paint was used.

We want to find out how much white paint was used by Araceli

Volume of Blue Paint+Volume of White Paint=Total Volume of Paint

7.2+Volume of White Paint=9.6

Volume of White Paint=9.6-7.2=2.4 pints
