Which polynomial does the model represent?
The model shows 1 black square block, 2 white thin blocks, 1 black thin block, 1 white small square block, 3 black small blocks.
a –x³ + 2x² – 3x + 2
b. x² + x – 2
c. –x² – x + 2
d. –x² + x – 2
Is it a
pls help me steve or damon or ms sue pls
its C
i snuck my way back in
To determine which polynomial the model represents, we need to analyze the pattern of the blocks. Let's break down the given representation:
1 black square block: This represents the term with the highest exponent. In this case, it is x³.
2 white thin blocks: This represents the coefficient multiplied by x² in the polynomial. In this case, it is 2x².
1 black thin block: This represents the coefficient multiplied by x in the polynomial. In this case, it is -3x.
1 white small square block: This represents the coefficient of the constant term in the polynomial, which is 2.
3 black small blocks: This represents the constant term in the polynomial, which is -3.
Combining all these terms, the polynomial representing the model is:
x³ + 2x² - 3x + 2
Therefore, the correct answer is option a) -x³ + 2x² - 3x + 2.
No idea, but it sure sounds like a silly way to model algebraic expressions.
I can't decide just what means what
You have
black square
white thin
black thin
white small square
black small
Clearly the question is garbled, or some geometric grouping is to suggest multiplication, or some-dang-thing else.
I can't figure this out, but I do know what tmesis means!
