Because there are three terms in this polynomial function, this would be considered a trinomial. Knowing that, we can immediately eliminate choice D.

Look at the highest degree in the problem and identify it. The degree should be 3. This means that the function is cubic. So, the best choice is B) Cubic Trinomial.

**For future reference, know that quartic is an unknown quantity or variable to the fourth power. While a quadratic is an unknown quantity or variable to the second power.

<span>B) Cubic Trinomial It is cubic because it goes up to the 3rd power, as seen in 3x^3. A quadratic function would only go up to the 2nd power, and a quartic function would go to the 4th. It is a trinomial rather than a binomial as it has three terms. The constant is considered as a term. It would be a binomial only if there were two terms.</span>

Ghella [55]

Answer:

38,500

Step-by-step explanation:

162/3% = (16 2/3)/100 = (50/3)/100 = 50/300 = 1/6

1/6 of the original population was ...

1/6 × 30,000 = 5,000

So the population at the end of 1990 was

30,000 +5,000 = 35,000.

In 1991, 10% of that number was added, so the population at the end of 1991 was ...

35,000 + 0.10×35,000 = 38,500

Student lets out 100 feet of string on a kite from a hand height of 3 feet. The angle between horizontal hand height and the kit

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, it will make a right triangle, in which hypotenuse = the length of the string = 100 feet

Let x denote the the height of the kite above the ground.

By trigonometry,

$\sin25^{\circ}=\frac{\text{side opposite to the angles }}{\text{hypotenuse}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.4226=\frac{x-3}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x-3=42.26\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=42.26+3\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=45.26$
