That polynomial is made up of 2 terms,

and 7y, separated by a minus sign. To find the degree of a polynomial you consider the term with the highest degree, no matter that the variables are different. The degree on the first term is 5+2=7, whereas the degree on the second term is just 1. Since the degree of a polynomial is equal to the degree of the term that is highest, our degree is 7.
A. is obviously the most easiest one, as you just have to fill it up 3 times to get 3 gallons.
The next one to measure exactly 3 gallons of water is B), because:
1) the 100-gallon barrel is more than 1 gallon, and is much more harder than 3 gallons.
2) Each person's 'palm' can hold different amounts of water, and so it can vary by the size of the palm.
So IF it cannot be (A), then your next choice is (B), as you only need 768 teaspoons for each gallon.
But, you should report this problem to the teacher, since A is obviously the best choice
Answer:
$1.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation where you have the total oranges (o) on top and the cost (c) on the bottom. So you will have two fractions equaling each other. So you will have o/c=o/c. Now you just have to replace the variables with what you know. 9 oranges= $3.60, and you want to know how much 4 oranges cost. Since the cost per orange is the same, no matter how many oranges you buy if you divide the amount of oranges by the price you will always get the same number. So replace the variables with the numbers you know and you get,
9/$3.60=4/c
Now to solve an equal fraction problem, simply cross multiply (multiply the two numbers diagonal so 4 and 3.6), and divide (take the multiplied number and divide by the number remaining which will be the number diagonal from the variable) which gives you $1.60 for four oranges.
Steps:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4x+3=9
Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.
4x+3−3=9−3
4x=6
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.
4x /4 = 6 /4
Answer: x=
3/2
