Here are two expressions whose product is a new expression, :

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. Fill in the box with 1

2. Fill in the box with -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression:

$(-2x^3 + [\ ]x)(x^{[\ ]}+1.5) = A$

Solving (1): Fill in the box to make it a polynomial.

To make it a polynomial, we simply fill in the box with a positive integer (say 1)

Fill in the box with 1

$(-2x^3 + [1]x)(x^{[1]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 + x)(x^1+1.5) = A$

$(-2x^3 + x)(x+1.5) = A$

Open bracket

$-2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x = A$

Reorder

$A = -2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x$

The above expression is a polynomial.

This will work for any positive integer filled in the box

Solving (2): Fill in the box to make it not a polynomial.

The powers of a polynomial are greater than or equal to 0.

So, when the boxes are filled with a negative integer (say -2), the expression will cease to be a polynomial

Fill in the box with -2

$(-2x^3 + [-2]x)(x^{[-2]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5) = A$

Reorder

$A = (-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5)$

Open brackets

$A = -2x-3x^3-2x^{-1}-3x$

Collect Like Terms

$A = -3x^3-2x-3x-2x^{-1}$

$A = -3x^3-5x-2x^{-1}$

Notice that the least power of x is -1.

Hence, this is not a polynomial.

ahrayia [7]

The ratio of boys to girls is
12:24
(which is already one statement)
the ratio, simplified, is
1:2
(ratio are like fractions, which is how I was able to "simplify" it)

ladessa [460]

Answer:

1195.22N.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass: m =82.6 kg

Velocity: v= 16.4m/sec.

Distance: d = 9.29 metres.

Acceleration = (v²/2d) = (16.4²/18.58) = 14.47m/sec².

Force = (mass x acceleration) = (82.6 x 14.47) = 1195.22N.

How do I solve this?

Olin [163]

Well if it is 1 inch per 100 feet, then we already know that 600 feet is 6 inches on the map. Now the 4 is where it gets trickier. Since it's dividing it by 100 each time, you take 4 and divide it by 100 which is 0.04. Therefore, your answer is 6.04 inches on the map.
