Find the degree and leading coefficient for the given polynomial.−5x^2 − 8x^5 + x − 40degree leading coefficient
The given polynomial is
- 5x^2 - 8x^5 + x - 40
It can be rewritten as
- 8x^5 - 5x^2 + x - 40
The degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable in the polynomial. The highest exponent of x is 5. Thus,
degree = 5
The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the term with the highest variable. The coefficient of x^5 is - 8. Thus,
Leading coefficient = - 8

Parker has tangerines and apricots in a ratio of 12:95. How many apricots does hehave if he has 96 tangerines?On the double number line below, fill in the given values, then use multiplication ordivision to find the missing value.
We know that if Parker has 12 tangerines he has 95 apricots, so to find how many apricots he has we need to do a rule of tree
[tex]\begin{gathered} x\text{ apricots }\cdot\frac{12\text{ tangerines}}{95\text{ apricots}}=96\text{ tangerines} \\ x\text{ apricots = 96 tangerines }\cdot\frac{95\text{ apricots}}{12\text{ tangerines}} \\ x\text{ apricots =}\frac{96\cdot95}{12}\text{ apricots = }\frac{9120}{12}\text{ apricots} \\ x=760 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the answer is that Parker has 760 apricots is he has 96 tangerines.
If x varies directly as y, and x=-30 when y=-6, find x when y=-4.
Let us now introduce a constant 'k' inorder to get the relationship between x and y,

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=5y \\ x=5\times-4 \\ x=-20 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, x is -20.
Find the slope of the function 8x - 2y = 10.
Solve the equation in terms of y, so that it is in the slope-intercept form

What is the least common denominator for the following rational equation?x/x+2 + 1/x+4 = x-1/x^2-2x-24
Least Common Denominator (LCD)
We are required to find the LCD for the expression:
[tex]\frac{x}{x+2}+\frac{1}{x+4}=\frac{x-1}{x^2-2x-24}[/tex]We need to have every denominator as the product of the simplest possible expressions.
Since x+2 and x+4 are already factored, we need to factor the expression:

x+2, x+4, x-6 and x+4
The LCD is the product of all the prime factors:

Which of these standard form equations is equivalent to (x + 1)(x - 2)(x + 4)(3x + 7)?
The standard form equation that is equivalent to the expression is x⁴ + 16x³ + 3x² - 66x - 56
How to determine the standard form equation that is equivalent?From the question, we have the following expression that can be used in our computation:
(x + 1)(x - 2)(x + 4)(3x + 7)
The above equation is a product of linear factors
This means that the result of the equation is a polynomial with a degree of the number of factors in the expression
So, we have
(x + 1)(x - 2)(x + 4)(3x + 7)
Open the first two brackets
This gives
(x² + x - 2x - 2)(x + 4)(3x + 7)
Evaluate the like terms
So, we have
(x² - x - 2)(x + 4)(3x + 7)
Open the first two brackets
This gives
(x³ + 4x² - x² - 4x - 2x - 8)(3x + 7)
Evaluate the like terms
So, we have
(x³ + 3x² - 6x - 8)(3x + 7)
Open the remaining brackets
This gives
(x⁴ + 7x³ + 9x³ + 21x² - 18x² - 42x - 24x - 56)
Evaluate the like terms
So, we have
(x⁴ + 16x³ + 3x² - 66x - 56)
Remove the bracket
x⁴ + 16x³ + 3x² - 66x - 56
The expression cannot be further simplified
Hence, the result is x⁴ + 16x³ + 3x² - 66x - 56

A. angle addition postulate with angles forming a straight line angle
1) Examining that table, we can see that step 4 is a consequence of the third step, the triangle sum theorem.
2) Then in step 4, we have the following reason to state that the sum of those angles is 180º: Then as we can see below:
We have a Linear Pair between the angles ∠ABD, ∠DBE, and ∠CBE since those angles combined add up to 180º (a straight angle) in red.
