It is a polynomial, and the degree is quartic
hope this helps
The first step of simplifying the expression would be summing up the "i"s. They are separate ("+i" and "+5i") but you can still sum them up though they are apart. This is thanks to the commutative property of addition which allows summing the terms of an expression with several additions in whatever order it is prefered. Commutative means that the terms can be interchangeable.
Answer:
2 (3 - 7 r)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
-4 (3 r - 2) - 2 (r + 1)
-4 (3 r - 2) = 8 - 12 r:
8 - 12 r - 2 (r + 1)
-2 (r + 1) = -2 r - 2:
-12 r + -2 r - 2 + 8
Grouping like terms, -2 r - 12 r - 2 + 8 = (8 - 2) + (-12 r - 2 r):
(8 - 2) + (-12 r - 2 r)
-12 r - 2 r = -14 r:
-14 r + (8 - 2)
8 - 2 = 6:
6 - 14 r
Factor 2 out of 6 - 14 r:
Answer: 2 (3 - 7 r)
The first step to getting this in vertex form would be to put this in proper standard form. This is so that you can split the middle term which is a step of completing the square.
1 2/5 is a mixed number of 7/5
