Answer:

Explanation:

To simplify a polynomial, we have to do two things: 1) combine like terms, and 2) rearrange the terms so that they're written in descending order of exponent.

First, we combine like terms, which requires us to identify the terms that can be added or subtracted from each other. Like terms always have the same variable (with the same exponent) attached to them. For example, you can add 1 "x-squared" to 2 "x-squareds" and get 3 "x-squareds", but 1 "x-squared" plus an "x" can't be combined because they're not like terms.

Let's identify some like terms below.

f(x)=−4x+3x2−7+9x−12x2−5x4

Here you can see that -4x and 9x are like terms. When we combine (add) -4x and 9x, we get 5x. So let's write 5x instead:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

Let's do the same thing with the x-squared terms:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

f(x)=5x−9x2−7−5x4

Now there are no like terms left. Our last step is to organize the terms so that x is written in descending power:

f(x)=−5x4−9x2+5x−7

Homer is giving some cookies to each of
Stells [14]

Answer:

7 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 brothers

First , Second, Third

Let the total number cookies be represented by A

1 cookie = 1

Working backwards, we start from the third brother

If we work backwards

It means he gave everything away

We start from the youngest

He was given 1/2 of what was left and 1/2 a cookie

This means,

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

The second brother

He got half of what is left and 1/2 a cookies

Half of what is left from brother

= What the youngest brother got + 1/2 + 1/2 a cookie

= 1 + 1/2 + 1/2

= 1.5 + 1/2

= 2 cookies

For the first brother

He got 1/2 of the cookies + 1/2 cookie

= 1.5 × 2 + 1/2 + 1/2 cookies

= 3 1/2 + 1/2

= 4 cookies

The first brother got 4 cookies

The second brother got 2 cookies

The third broth got 1 cookies
