Suppose we have a generic polynomial of the form:

To know how many roots the polynomial can have, the first thing you should do is observe the term of greatest exponent.
For this case, the term of greatest exponent is 2.
Therefore, the polynomial has 2 roots.
Answer:
You must observe the term of the polynomial with greater exponent.
Time = distance/speed
Since you want to find the time Holly spent riding, you need to divide her distance (24 miles) by her speed (6 miles/hour) to get the number of hours (4) that she rode. Her starting time added to the time spend riding will give her ending time. One must subtract the riding time from the ending time to find the starting time.
Selection A is appropriate.
Answer:
1/2.(x+12)=4x-1
x+12=2(4x-1)
x+12=8x-2
Group like terms
12+2=8x-x
14=7x
Divide both sides by 7
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate 95 minus 3, four times
95 - 3⁴
95 - (3 * 3 * 3 * 3)
95 - (81)
95 - 81
= 14
Hence, 95 - (3 * 3 * 3 * 3) = 14
