What is the leading coefficient of the polynomial function? y=-x^4+4x^2

Mathematics

<h3>Answer:  -1</h3>

Explanation:

The given equation is the same as y = -1x^4+4x^2

The leading term is the term with the largest exponent, so it's -1x^4

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the leading term.

In short, we circle the first coefficient we see. This is assuming that the polynomial is in standard form where the exponents decrease when going from left to right.

Four friends all use $10 off coupons to buy themselves concert tickets.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

$64

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there were 4 of them and the coupons were $10 off, they saved a total of $40

To find how much they would have spent without the coupons, add 40 to 216:

216 + 40

= 256

To find the normal cost of one ticket, divide this by 4:

256/4

= 64

So, the price of one concert ticket without the coupon is $64

May you help me with this question please
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

<em>Option C</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider each of these graphs. Let us formulate an inequality for each of them, and match the one with an inequality of x > - 14.5;

Graph 1, x > 13.5\\Graph 2, x \geq 14\\Graph 3, x > 14.5\\Graph 4, x \geq 15

Graph 3 is the only one that matches with the inequality provided to us.

* Note that shaded circles are represented by a greater / less than or equal to, and non - shaded circles are represented by a greater / less than sign.

<em>Solution ⇒ Graph 3</em>

Andy joins a social networking site. After day three, he has 25 friends; after day eight, he has 40 friends. Write the equation
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Point slope intercept form: The equation for line is given by; y-y_1=m(x-x_1) ......[1] ; where m is the slope and a point (x_1, y_1) on the line.

Let x represents the number of days and y represents the number of friends.

As per the statement:  After day three, he has 25 friends; after day eight, he has 40 friends.

⇒ We have two points i.e,

(3, 25) and (8, 40)

First calculate slope(m);

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute the given values we get;

m = \frac{40-25}{8-3}=\frac{15}{5} = 3

now, substitute the given values of m=3 and a point (3, 25) in [1] we get;

y-25=3(x-3)

Using distributive property; a \cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c

y-25 = 3x - 9

Add 25 on both sides, we get;

y-25+25 = 3x - 9+25

Simplify:

y =3x + 16

if  x = 18 days, then;

y = 3(18) + 16 = 54+16 = 70

Therefore, he will have on day 18, if he continues to add the same number of friends each day is, 70 friends.
