Answer:
The expression used to find the nth term of each sequence 9, 17, 25, 33 will be:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence
9, 17, 25, 33
a₁ = 9
<em>Determining the common difference</em>
d = 17-9 = 8
d = 25-17 = 8
d = 33-25 = 8
As the common difference between the adjacent terms is same and equal to
d = 8
Therefore, the given sequence is an Arithmetic sequence.
An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by
substituting a₁ = 9, d = 8 in the equation
Therefore, the expression used to find the nth term of each sequence 9, 17, 25, 33 will be:
The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.
In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.
So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.
In fact, in general, if the polynomial 
has solutions 
, then you can factor it as
So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as
But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.

The equation is y=-5x + 20, x being the hours that go by after 5pm.
