The answer to this question will be B
A Coefficient is the answer
Hi there!
Many things we do in everyday life have a variety of ways we can go about accomplishing them, but we most often choose the most practical and efficient method.
Efficiency saves time and prevents over-complication, which may lead to errors.
We might need to identify the specifics of the task and its circumstances to be able to determine the most efficient method to do it.
Solving a quadratic equation, we also must think about the most efficient method that can lead us to the correct answer. And doing so, we must identify the circumstances of the equation; Can it be solved by factoring? Is it easy to factor? What form is this quadratic equation in?
For example, let's say we're given the equation (x-1)(x+2)=0. This is an equation in factored form. In these kinds of scenarios, we can <em>easily</em> solve by setting each term equal to 0 (the Zero Product Property). This is the <em>most efficient </em>method:
x-1=0 --> x=1
x+2=0 --> x=-2
I hope this helps!
Tia went home and said to her mom,"I learned that 10 to the power of 4 is the same as 40,000."
Tia made a mistake in her thinking. Exponent represents the number of zeros.
means we multiply 10 four times
For exponent 4, we put 4 zeros. So answer is 10,000.
