Answer:
A. 4
B. 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a one-variable polynomial is the largest exponent of the variable.
__
<h3>A.</h3>
For f(x) = x^4 -3x^2 +2 and g(x) = 2x^4 -6x^2 +2x -1, the sum f(x) +a·g(x) will be ...
(x^4 -3x^2 +2) +a(2x^4 -6x^2 +2x -1)
= (1 +2a)x^4 +(-3-6a)x^2 +2ax -a
The term with the largest exponent is (1 +2a)x^4, which has degree 4. This term will be non-zero for a ≠ -1/2.
The largest possible degree of f+ag is 4.
__
<h3>B.</h3>
The polynomial sum is ...
f+bg = (1 +2b)x^4 +(-3-6b)x^2 +2bx -b
When b = -1/2, the first two terms disappear and the sum becomes ...
f+bg = -x +1/2 . . . . . . a polynomial of degree 1
The smallest possible degree of f+bg is 1.
It is 57! I hope you are satisfied.
The answer is C Trina is not correct because the two sides of the equation are equivalent
Answer:
5.6
Step-by-step explanation:
first you see if the 100ths place is 4 or under or 5 and up. 5 and up you add 1 to the tenths place. 4 and down you keep the number the same. therefore because the number after six is 3 six stays the same and the answer is 5.6.
