Question

Are the polynomial functions f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x^4 - 2 and g(x) = -2 + 12x^2 + 5x^4 equal?

Answer 1

yes.

same way that

2 + 1 = 1 + 2

Answer 2

So the f(x) and g(x) don't change anything?

Answer 3

no. they are just a letter to distinguish functions.

g(x) : g is a function of x

h(y): h is a function of y

Answer 4

Oh ok. Thank you very much

Answer 5

glad i could help :)

Answer 6

Wait I got another question!
