Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{1}{2} (x + 3) > x - 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

- (x + 3) > 2x - 6 ← distribute parenthesis on left side by - 1

- x - 3 > 2x - 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 3x - 3 > - 6 ( add 3 to both sides )

- 3x > - 3

divide both sides by - 3, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity

x < 1

Answer:

A. x<1

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2 (x+3) > x - 3

(-1/2)x-3/2>x-3

Multiply both sides by 2:

-x-3>2x-6

add both sides by 3:

-x-3+3>2x-6+3

-x>2x-3

minus both sides by 2x

-x-2x>2x-2x-3

-3x>-3

x<1

Explain why the expression 9x^3+1/2x^2+3x^-1 is not a polynomial
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The given expression can't be expressed in polynomial form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x,n) is a polynomial of nth degree if it is of the form,

P(x,n) = a_{0} + a_{1}x + a_{2}x^{2} + a_{3}x^{3} + ......... +a_{n}x^{n}

where n is a finite positive integer and n ∈ N

and 'a_{i}'s are fixed but otherwise arbitrary constants ∀  i = 0(1)n .

Now, the given expression is,

9x^{3} + \frac {1}{2x^{2}} + 3x^{-1}

which  doesn't fit in the above form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.
