Simplify the question
10x /(divide) -2y

(-5x)/y

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant:

  10x

 -2y

                               -5x

This reduces to  

                                  y

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number,   the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1,   the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.
