Answer:

The two polynomials are:

(x + 1) and (x² + x)

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is simply an expression which consists of variables & coefficients involving only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non - negative integer exponents of variables.

Now, 1 and x are both polynomials. Thus; 1/x is already a quotient of a polynomial.

Now, to get two polynomial expressions whose quotient, when simplified, is 1/x, we will just multiply the numerator and denominator by the same polynomial to get more quotients.

So,

Let's multiply both numerator and denominator by (x + 1) to get;

(x + 1)/(x(x + 1))

This gives; (x + 1)/(x² + x)

Now, 1 and x are both polynomials but the expression "1/x" is not a polynomial but a quotient and thus polynomials are not closed under division.

Triangles QPT and QRS are similar. Find x.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

from those are similar, the ratio of side will be 40/24=x/20 so x=33.3333 is equal 33 and one-third.

zmey [24]
Use proportions.

5/6 = x/30

6 * 5 = 30
5 * 5 = 25

x = 25

The statue is 25 feet tall.
