What is answer to polynomial x-squared minus x minus 42?
x = ? 42 = x squared minus x
What are quadratic polynomial quartic polynomial constant polynomial and quintic polynomial?
Those words refer to the degree, or highest exponent that modifies a variable, or the polynomial.Constant=No variables in the polynomialLinear=Variable raised to the first powerQuadratic=Variable raised to the second power (or "squared")Cubic=Variable raised to the third power (or "cubed")Quartic=Variable raised to the fourth powerQuintic=Variable raised to the fifth powerAnything higher than that is known as a "6th-degree" polynomial, or "21st-degree" polynomial. It all depends on the highest exponent in the polynomial. Remember, exponents modifying a constant (normal number) do not count.
How do you answer polynomial?
You can evaluate a polynomial, you can factorise a polynomial, you can solve a polynomial equation. But a polynomial is not a specific question so it cannot be answered.
A fourth degree polynomial that has five terms could have five linear factors.?
No, if it is of degree 4, it can have 4 linear factors, regardless of the number of terms.For example, x squared + 5x + 6 = (x+3)(x+2). The unfactored polynomial has three terms, and is of degree 2. Similarly, you can multiply four linear terms together; and you will get a polynomial of degree 4, which has up to 5 terms.
What is a polynomial divided by a polynomial?
monomial
