Algebra 1 questions Fan + Medal
The length of a rectangle is (4x^2 + 2x - 1) units, and its width is (3x^3 - x + 4) units. Part A: What is the area of the rectangle? Show your work. (5 points) Part B: Does the answer for Part A show that polynomials are closed under an operation? Justify your answer. (3 points) Part C: What is the degree and classification of the expression obtained in Part A? (2 points)
@satellite73
this is definitely not an algebra 1 problem!
yes it is @Kunitskiy1 it is Polynomials
area= length * width, so you foil the two polynomials
mkay Ill do it, you tell me if im right
12x^5+6x^4−7x^3+14x^2+9x−4
refresh the page to remove the question marks
12x^5+6x^4-7x^3+14x^2+9x-4 is what i got
we got the same answer :)
what next for Part B
i don't know what you mean with part b
ahh... well here is the rule, but I cant seem to be able to apply it
part c. the degree is 5th degree, i don't know the classification
hmm... I would have to say 5th degree polynomial... do you agree?
yep, thats what i said above... 5th degree
ok... now lets try to do B
i guess i would say, yes, because you are limited to the area equation, Area=length*width
