Answer:
1/2x-5=13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= Frankie’s mother’s age
Half his mother’s age= 1/2x
5 less than that=1/2x-5
We know that Frankie is 13 so that equation is equal to Frankie’s age, which is 13.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
A term in a polynomial is a single number or a number multiplied by any number of variables. A polynomial is a sum of terms.
The only thing that can be done with variables in a polynomial is to multiply them by numbers or other variables. In a polynomial, you cannot: divide by a variable (have a variable in a denominator), have a root of a variable, have a log of a variable, have a variable as an exponent, etc.
All expressions are polynomials except for D. In D., the negative exponents mean division by variables.
