Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial : p(x)=1−2x2−3x3+4x

Rearranging : p(x) = -3x³ - 2x² + 4x + 1

Looking at the polynomial Given, we can see that it is a univariate polynomial, that is it has only one variable which is x. Thus for polynomials of this sort, the order of the polynomial is the highest exponent occurring in the polynomial equation. Therefore, the order of the polynomial above is 3, because the highest power of the function is 3.

This means that those with 4 as their highest exponent are of order 4 and those with highest exponent as 2 are of order 2.

Calculate the volume of the figure.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Volume = L * w * h

Givens

L = 7 feet

w = 4 feet

h = 5 feet

Solution

V = L * w * h Substitute values into the formula

V = 7 * 4 * 5

V = 140 cubic feet.

Answer

140 ft^3

The equation y 16t 2 18t 405 describes the height in feet of a ball thrown downward at 18 feet per second from a height of 405 f

Answer:

Ball hits the ground after 4.5 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a -1, so that the leading coefficient is positive

So our quadratic is

$-1 \times (16t^2 +18t -405)$

The key coefficients of two binomial variables can be 1 and 16, or 2 and 8, or 4 and 4, for the leading coefficient of 16.

Yet they can't actually be 4 and 4 because the linear (x) term coefficient has to be a multiple of 4, which it isn't and leading coefficients 1 and 16 on the binomial factors is not likely.

So, 2 and 8 taken as the leading coefficients of two binomial factors.

For constant 405, possible factorizations are $(81\times 5, 27 \times 15, 9 \times 45).$
