PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE MEDAL Which of the following shows that polynomials are closed under addition when two polynomials 4x + 6 and 2x^2 − 8x − 4 are added? 2x^2 − 4x + 2 will be a polynomial 2x^2 − 4x + 2 may or may not be a polynomial 2x^2 − 12x − 10 will be a polynomial 2x^2 − 12x − 10 may or may not be a polynomia
add this: 4x + 6 + 2x^2 − 8x − 4 = 2x^2 − 4x + 2, so....
for some field to closed under certain operation, means that if you aply this operation to 2 elements of the field you get an element that is also in the field
in your case field is polinomials and operation is adition
in short, "closed" will mean, the RESULTANT of the addition of those 2 fellows
so, if you add \(\bf 4x + 6 \quad and\quad 2x^2 − 8x − 4\) what will be the RESULTANT or sum?
