To qualify as a polynomial, the expression in question:
* Consists of one or more terms * Variables are only with positive whole exponents* No variables in the denominator of any term (the coefficients however, can be fractions.)In that case the answer is most likely:
The answer is negative, because the first number is negative.
Answer:
a = 1/8
b = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
a (1/2) ^3 = (1/2) *(1/2) * (1/2) = 1/8
b( 1/2 ) ^ -3 The negative exponent means 1 / (1/2)^3 = 1/ (1/8) = 8
