I got 41.4 lbs if you round to the nearest tenths
1/10 of .9 is the same as dividing .9 by 10.
.90 / 10 = .09
.09 is the answer
This is only my opinion. I could be wrong.
My guess is:
Somebody else used that book before you, maybe last year or
the year before, and it was somebody who didn't mind writing
in his book.
One day he didn't have time to write down the homework in his
assignment notebook, so he just circled the homework problems
in his textbook.
Answer:
x⁴ + x³ + 4x² - 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
The polynomials given in the question are:
x⁴ - 3x + 1
4x² - 2x + 8
x³ - 9
We have to add all them
First write all the polynomial in the summation form:
(x⁴ - 3x + 1) + (4x² - 2x + 8) + (x³ - 9)
Open the brackets:
x⁴ - 3x + 1 + 4x² - 2x + 8 + x³ - 9
Group together the similar terms
(x⁴) + (x³) + (4x²) + (-3x -2x) + (1 + 8 - 9)
Finding the sum in brackets:
x⁴ + x³ + 4x² + (-5x) + (0)
x⁴ + x³ + 4x² - 5x
Note that the sum is in descending powers of x
