How do you do a parabola?
A parabola is a graph of a 2nd degree polynomial function. Two graph a parabola, you must factor the polynomial equation and solve for the roots and the vertex. If factoring doesn't work, use the quadratic equation.
What is 5 to the 2nd power plus 8 divided by 2?
16.5
What does 5 to the 2nd power equal?
25
What were Niels Henrik Abel's contributions?
Abel proved, at the age of 19 mind you, that there is no general algebraic solution to polynomial equations of degree 5 or higher, as opposed to say, the quadratic equation for a 2nd degree polynomial. At that time, that was one of the biggest unsolved problems in math, so as you might imagine, proving it was a big deal. However, as it turns out, the far more important result from this proof was that Abel had to invent the algebraic subfield known as group theory to complete it, and group theory provides the current mathematical basis to our model of fundamental particles and forces, known as the standard model.
Why can't you simplify the square root of x to the power of 2 plus 4?
ok lets let x=4. The square root of 4 to the 2nd power + 4= 8. The square root and power of 2 cancel out? Is that what you mean?
What is the degree of this polynomial 3x2-4x 9?
It is of the 2nd degree.
What kind of polynomial is the one shown F of x equals 15 x squared minus 2.5 plus 3?
F(x) = 15x2 - 2.5 + 3 That's a quadratic or 2nd degree polynomial in x.
How do you identify the polynomials of degree one?
The degree of a polynomial is determined by the highest degree of the terms within it, and the degree of the terms is determined by the power of the variable and the amount of variables in it.For example, the term 3x has a degree of one, as does 5y. However when there is more than one variable you add the degrees together, so 4xy has a degree of 2, not 1. Any single variable to the 2nd power e.g. 8x2 also has a degree of 2.So a polynomial of one degree is a polynomial where each of its terms only have one variable to the first power so 5+x is to one degree, as is 1+2x+3y+4z despite having more than one variable in the expression.
What is the degree of the polynomial -2xy3 plus 3x2y?
I will assume that you mean -2xy3+3x2y. Then by "degree" is usually meant the total degree--the maximum sum of exponents of all variables. Here the first term has degree 1+3=4 and the second term has degree 2+1=3, so the degree of the entire expression is 4. It is also a 2nd degree expression in x and a 3rd degree expression in y.

What is t2 the second power plus 60?
If your asking what 2 to the 2nd power plus 60 is it is 64. Because to to the 2nd power is 4 and 4 plus 60 is 64.
How do you state the degree of a polynomials?
find the number with the highest exponent, that exponent is the degree. for example, 2x to the 3rd power + 6x to the 2nd power the degree is 3
What is x plus y to the second power?
xy 2nd
14u to the 2nd power plus 34u to the 4th power?
2u2(17u2 + 7)
What is 18m to the 2nd power minus 75mn plus 12n to the 2nd power?
That factors to 3(m - 4n)(6m - n)
What is the limit as x approaches infinity of x plus x to the 3rd power plus x to the 5th power all divided by 1 - x to the 2nd power plus x to the 4th power?
Infinity.
What is the degree for a number without a variable?
anything without a variable is to the first power. To find the degree, you look at what the power of the number is and that will be the degree. The degree is the number of times your coefficient is a factor. Since the exponent is one, so is the degree. Ex. 2x squared = 2nd degree
