Answer:

the GPE is 1/2 the unit of measure used to make the measurement or you say 1/2 the most precise unit

12.3 L has 0.1 as the most precise unit of measure, so 1/2 of 0.1 is 0.05 L which is c. above

look at it this way: 12.3 can be any number between 12.25 and 12.34 rounded to the nearest tenth

any number from 12.25 to 12.34 rounded to the nearest tenth gives you 12.3, so the GPE that you can possibly make is 0.05; if the number was 12.24 it would round down to 12.2 not up to 12.3 and if the number was 12.35 it would round up to 12.4 not round down to 12.3, so again the greatest possible error that you can make is 0.05

The division algorithm states that if p(x) and d(x) are polynomial functions with d left parenthesis x right parenthesis not e

katrin [286]

Answer:

In a division algorithm, $p(x)$ refers to the dividend polynomial, $d(x)$ refers to the divisor polynomial, $q(x)$ refers to the quotient polynomial and $r(x)$ refers to the residula polynomial.

The division algorithm is defined as

$p(x)=d(x) \times q(x) +r(x)$

Where $p(x)\geq d(x)$ and $d(x) \neq 0$ , other wise the algorithm won't be defined.

So, the complete paragraph is: "if $p(x)$ and $d(x)$ are polynomial functions with $d(x)\neq 0$ and the degree of $d(x)$ is less than or equal to the degree of $p(x)$ , then there exist unique polynomial functions $q(x)$ and $r(x)$ such that $p(x)=d(x) \times q(x) +r(x)$ .
