Answer:
What is the degree of polynomial?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degrees of the polynomial's monomials with non-zero coefficients.
Example:
4x The Degree is 1 (a variable without an
exponent actually has an exponent of 1)
More Examples:
4x^ − x + 3 The Degree is 3 (largest exponent of x)
x^2 + 2x^5 − x The Degree is 5 (largest exponent of x)
z^2 − z + 3 The Degree is 2 (largest exponent of z)
A constant polynomials (P(x) = c) has no variables. Since there is no exponent to a variable, therefore the degree is 0.
3 is a polynomial of degree 0.
A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal
We know that
Inverse Variation is a<span> relationship between two variables in which the product is a constant
so
let
x------> a pitch of a musical instrument
y------> </span><span>the wavelength
x*y=k
find the value of k
for x=</span><span>220 hertz y=3 ft
</span><span>x*y=k
220*3=k
k=660
</span>for x=165 hertz y=4 ft
x*y=k
165*4=660
k=660<span>
the answer part a) is
</span><span>the type of variation between pitch and wavelength is an inverse variation
</span>
part b) <span>What is the pitch when the wavelength is 5 feet?
x=?
y=5 ft
k=660
x*y=k------> solve for x
x=k/y----------> x=660/5-----> x=132 hertz
the answer Part b) is
132 hertz</span>
