Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Simplify the given polynomial and use it to complete the statement.

(-5x² - 2x + 4) + (8x² - x - 1) + (x + 2)(x - 5)

.The polynomial simplifies to an expression that is a

A.quadratic

B.liner

C.constany

A.trinomial

B.binomial

C.monomial

with a degree of

A.1

B.2

C.0

Solution:

A polynomial is an expression involving operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, exponents which consists of variables and their coefficient. A trinomial is a polynomial consisting of three terms, while a binomial consist of two terms and a monomial consist of one term.

The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of any of the terms of the polynomial. If it has a degree of 0 it is a constant, a degree of 1 it is linear while for a degree of 2 it is quadratic.

(-5x² - 2x + 4) + (8x² - x - 1) + (x + 2)(x - 5)

= (-5x² - 2x + 4) + (8x² - x - 1) + (x² -5x + 2x - 10)

= (-5x² - 2x + 4) + (8x² - x - 1) + (x² - 3x - 10)

= (-5x² + 8x² + x² - 2x - x - 3x + 4 - 1 - 10)

= 4x² - 6x - 7

Therefore:

.The polynomial simplifies to an expression that is a quadratic trinomial of degree 2.

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

answer:

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this you!

2/3

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves
