An 8th-degree polynomial needs 9 terms that involve
x⁸, x⁷, ..., x¹, and x⁰.
x=10 implies that (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial according to the Remainder theorem.
Let the polynomial be of the form
f(x) = a₁x⁸ + a₂x⁷ + a₃x⁶ +a₄x⁵ + a₅x⁴ + a₆x³ + a₇x² + a₈x + a₉
The first few lines of the synthetic division are
10 | a₁ a₂ a₃ a₄ a₅ a₆ a₇ a₈ a₉ ( the first row has 9 coefficients)

The first row has 9 coefficients.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the average number of pounds Fido must loss.
Since, the initial weight of Fido is 35 pounds.
And, After losing the weight, the new weight of Fido in pounds = 28 pounds.
Then the time taken for losing the weight
= 
= 
According to the question, it must lose weight within 6 months,
Thus, 
Which is the required inequality to find the average number of pounds per month.
By solving it we, get, 
Answer:
- 33°
- 90° -J°
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>1)</h3>
If x represents the measure of the angle, its complement is 90-x. The problem statement tells us ...
x +24 = 90 -x
2x = 66 . . . . . add x-24
x = 33 . . . . . . divide by 2
The measure of the angle is 33°.

<h3>2)</h3>
Using J for x in the given complement relation:
The measure of the complement of J° is (90 -J)°.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Part (A)
We have n = 5 sides, so the measure of any exterior angle of a regular pentagon is E = 360/n = 360/5 = 72
Each interior angle is therefore 180-E = 180-72 = 108 degrees.
---------------
Alternatively, you could use the formula below with n = 5
i = interior angle
i = 180(n-2)/n
i = 180(5-2)/5
i = 180(3)/5
i = 540/5
i = 108

<h3>Answer: 108 degrees</h3>
====================================================
Part (B)
We're told that CDF is 70 degrees. From part (A) we know that angle CDE is 108 degrees, so this must mean that angle EDF is 108-70 = 38 degrees.
Similarly, angle FEA is 85 degrees, which subtracts from angle AED to get 108 - 85 = 23 degrees. This is the measure of angle DEF.
So far we found
angle EDF = 38
angle DEF = 23
Let's call these x and y for shorthand. Let z be the missing third angle of triangle DFE.
So,
x+y+z = 180
38+23+z = 180
61+z = 180
x = 180-61
x = 119
Interior angle DFE is 119 degrees.
Note how 90 < x < 180 showing we have an obtuse angle. It is not a reflex angle because the statement 180 < x < 360 is false.
So we subtract the value of x from 360
360-x = 360-119 = 241
This is the reflex angle DFE

<h3>Answer: 241 degrees</h3>
