The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial of degree has exactly n roots (including complex and multiple).
The degree of a polynomial is the highest (non-negative) exponent of the polynomial, in this case is 17 from the term 15x^17.
For this case we must simplify the following expression:

We have that by definition of properties of powers that is fulfilled:

Then, rewriting the expression:

Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, you're being asked to identify the sequence of steps you would use to compute the volume of the pyramid.
It seems to be a good idea to start with the formula for the volume.
Then, recognize that you need to compute B, so make that computation. The area of the base (B) is the product of the base dimensions (14)(12).
Once you have the value of B, then you can put that, along with the value of h, into the original volume formula.
Evaluating it gives the volume in cubic units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you're familiar with the pyramid volume formula, you know that you must compute B before you can make use of the formula. That makes the sequence be B=14(12); B=168; V=1/3Bh; V=1/3(168)(7).
However, if you're starting from scratch, it is probably good to begin with the volume formula. That is what tells you that you need to find B in the first place. This is the sequence we show below.
Converting 200 miles to the amount of carbon dioxide emission that would be 1.884 tons annually. This will be the amount of carbon dioxide given that 200 miles is monthly covered.
Answer:
a. Current: 5 units/hour. Previous: 4.4 units/hour
b. Increase
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Current period productivity is 200 / 40 = 5 units/hour
Previous period productivity is 132 / 30 = 4.4 units/hour
b. As this week's productivity = 5 units/hours which is larger than last week's productivity = 4.4 units/hour. The worker's productivity for this week has increased.
