Question

Which of the following expressions are polynomials?

Answer 1

Answer:

1,3 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) -2(7x + 1) − 5(3x2 + 3x + 2)

= -14x - 2 - 15x^2 - 15x - 10

= -15x^2 - 29x - 12

2) (5x2 − 10x + 8) − (10x2 + 19x + 20)

= 5x^2 - 10x + 8 - 10x^2 - 19x - 20

= -5x^2 -29x - 12

3) (-7x2 − 21x + 13) − (8x2 + 8x + 25)

= -7x^2 - 21x + 13 - 8x^2 - 8x - 25

= -15x^2 - 29x - 12

4) (-19x2 − 4x - 7) + (4x2 + 25x − 5)

= -15x^2 + 21x - 12

5) (-17x2 + 2x − 3) + (2x2 − 31x − 9)

= -15x^2 -29x - 12

6) -2(4x − 15) − 3(5x2 + 7x + 6)

= -8x + 30 - 15x^2 - 21x - 18

= -15x^2 - 29x + 12
