A² - ab + 8b + b² - 1
There are 5 terms in the expression.
a² = 1st term
ab = 2nd term
8b = 3rd term
b² = 4th term
1 = 5th term
Each term is separated by a plus (+) sign or a minus (-) sign.
A term is either a number, a variable, or a number and a variable multiplied together.
a², ab, b² are variables.
8b is a number and a variable multiplied together
1 is a number.
Answer:
Without any studying, the score would be about 328
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of an equation represents the point where its graph crosses the y-axis. At this point the value of x is always equal to 0.
The y-intercept of the equation in this context would represent the Math SAT score of a student who did not do any studying, that is the number of hours spent studying, x = 0.
Substitute x = 0 in the given equation and solve for y;
y = 24.387(0) + 328.182
y = 328.182
Therefore, Without any studying, the score would be about 328
Y = 1.50x + 4......x = 7
y = 1.50(7) + 4
y = 10.50 + 4
y = 14.50 <===

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of a polynomial function are found by factoring in the form
a(x - r1)(x - r2)(x - r3) ... = 0, where each 'r-something' is a root (or solution) and 'a' is the leading coefficient.
Like if we have 3x² - 3x - 6 = 0
Factoring it as 3(x-2)(x + 1) = 0 shows the roots are 2 and -1.
And sine the right side is zero, we can even drop the factor of 3 on the left, and still have an equivalent equation (has same answers).
(x-2)(x + 1) = 0
The reason this works is because each factor in parentheses adds up to zero, creating a factor of zero in what is being multiplied on the left. And we know that if you have a series of factors in a product, and any one of those factors is zero, the whole product must be zero. So what is on the left equals the zero on the right, making the equation true.
