Well.. a polynomial expression is an expression that has 3 or more different algebraic terms.

Algebraic terms can be: x^2, 2x, or x^3

One example is: x^2 + x^3 - 7y

Since x^(-2)+5 only has one algebraic term, which is x^(-2), this is not a polynomial.

Solve x2 – 8x 41 = 0 for x. x = –4 ± 5i x = 4 ± 5i

Ede4ka [16]

X^2 - 8x + 41 = 0
$x = \frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{(-8)^2-(4\times41)}}{2}=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64-164}}{2}\\=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{-100}}{2}=\frac{8\pm10i}{2}=4\pm5i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Basic salary = $500

Expected earning this week = $2,500

Expected commission on appliance sales = $2,500 - $500 = $2,000
