Given the two expressions below: 1) 4x2 − 8x + 9 2) 3x2 + 2y + 6 Is the sum of the two expressions above a polynomial? Why or wh
Mkey [24]
Sum of polynomials are always polynomials.

Note that despite it's name, single constants, monomials, binomials, trinomials, and expressions with more than three terms are all polynomials.
For example,
0, π sqrt(2)x, 4x+2, x^2+3x+4, x^2-x^2, x^5+x/ π -1
are all polynomials.

What makes an expression NOT a polynomial?
Expressions that contain non-integer or negative powers of variables, rational functions, infinite series.
For example,
sqrt(x+1), 1/x+4, 1+x+ x^2/2!+x^3/3!+x^4/4!+...., (5x+3)/(6x+7)
are NOT polynomials.

Anyone know how to find the area of an equilateral triangle circumscribed about a circle, given the radius of the circle?
tia_tia [17]
Warning: This might be rough...
First draw it out. Label the angles at the corners of the triangle 60 (definition of equilateral triangles). Now draw a line from the center of the circle to the corner, splitting the corner in half. Label this line R and a corner as 30 degrees. No to find the height of this triangle, you do rsin(30). The base of this triangle is 2rcos(30). Now find the area of this mini triangle (rsin(30)*2rcos(30)/2=r/2*rsqrt(3)/2=r^2sqrt(3)/4). Now multiply this by 3 because you have 3 mini triangles... to get...

State whether the data described below are discrete or​ continuous, and explain why. The exact mass (in grams )of food eaten by
NARA [144]

Answer:

A. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data surveyed is the exact mass, in grams, of food eaten by each person each day.

This type of data is continous, not discrete. The mass can take any value within the domain of positive real numbers. It represents a physic variable, and they are always continous.
