If the following is a polynomial function, then state its degree and leading coefficient. if it is not, then state this fact. f(x) = -13x^5 - 4x^4 - 1 degree: 5; leading coefficient: -13 degree: -13; leading coefficient: 5 degree: 9; leading coefficient: -13 not a polynomial function

By definition, a polynomial is an expression with more than one term. That is a monomial. We have names for 2-termed polynomials (binomials) and 3-termed polynomials (trinomials), but that's where the naming stops and they all are called polynomials after that. Our degree is the same as the highest exponent. So our degree is a fifth degree. The leading coefficient is the number that starts out the whole polynomial AS LONG AS IT IS IN STANDARD FORM. If our polynomial started with the -4x^4, our leading coefficient would NOT be -4 since the highest degree'd term will always come first in standard form. Your choice for your answer is the first one given. Degree: 5 Leading Coefficient: -13.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
