He spent 1.25 hours edging.

You can get this by multiplying the total amount of time by the percentage.

.25 * 5 = 1.25

Answer:

1.25 hours = 1 hour and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of time that he worked was 5 hours.

And 25% of that time he spend it edging the flower bends.

Thus, in order to solve this problem we need to find how much is 25% of 5 hours.

To find a percentage of any quantity 'x' we apply the following formula:

\frac{x(percentage) }{100}

in this case the quantity is 5 hours, and the percentage we want is 25%, so:

25% of 5 hours = \frac{5(25)}{100}

25% of 5 hours = \frac{125}{100}

25% of 5 hours = 1.25hours

he spend 1.25 hours edging. Or you can also represent 1.25 hours as 1 hour and 15 minutes

Which of the following is a polynomial function? Select all correct answers. Select all that apply: f(x)=4⋅11x f(x)=3⋅18x f(x)=1
kaheart [24]

Answer:

All of them are polynomial functions

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a polynomial function of x is a function whose value f(x) is always equal to f(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+\cdots a_nx^n for a fixed n≥0 (the degree of f) and fixed coefficients a_i\in\mathbb{R}

For example, f(x)=x^2+3x is a polynomial function, but g(x)=2^x+x is not because 2^n is not a nonnegative power of x. Another example of a non-polynomial function is g(x)=x^{-1}=\frac{1}{x}.

f(x)=4⋅11x is polynomial with degree 1 and a_0=0,a_1=4\cdot 11. For the same reasons, f(x)=3⋅18x and f(x)=10⋅17x are polynomial functions.

f(x)=−4x³−4x²+5x+1 is a polynomial function of degree 3 with a_0=1,a_1=5, a_2=a_3=-4. and f(x)=−2x−1 is a polynomial function of degree 1 and coefficients a_0=-1,a_1=-2.
