Answer: a and c are polynomials, b is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial p(x) is written as:

p(x) = aₙ*xⁿ + ... + a₂*x² + a₁*x¹ + a₀*x⁰

where x is the variable, and the numbers aₙ, aₙ₋₁, ..., a₁, a₀ are the coefficients of the polynomial, such that aₙ is the leading coefficient, and the value of n (always a natural number) is the degree of the polynomial.

Notice that the powers need to be always natural numbers.

Now, let's analyze the options:

a) 3*x - 2

We can rewrite this as:

3*x¹ - 2*x⁰

Then this is a polynomial.

b) p² + 1/p    (in this case the variable is p)

the second term can be written as:

1/p = p⁻¹

Then we have a term with a negative power of p, this means that this is not a polynomial.

c) 3*y² - 2*y/3 + 1

Same as in the first case, we can rewrite this as:

3*y² - (2/3)*y¹ + 1*y⁰

This is a polynomial.

Answer=6

Formula for slope:

slope= \frac{y _{2}-y _{1}  }{x _{2}-x _{1}  }= \frac{-3-3}{-2-(-1)} = \frac{-6}{-1}=6

slope=6

Given: f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x) = x2 and h(x) = -2x<br><br> h(g(f(x)))
alexgriva [62]
Hello here is a solution :
<span>h(g(f(x))) ?

</span>g(f(x))= g(2x+5)=(2x+5)²=(2x)²+2(2x)(5)+5² = 4x²+20x+25
h(g(f(x)))(x) = h(4x²+20x+25) = -2(4x²+20x+25) 
h(g(f(x)))(x) = -8x²-40x-50
