Two brothers, Jim and John, had a straight log in their backyard. Jim wanted the log cut into 24 equal parts. He painted red lines on the log and called to a lumberjack to cut the log by the painted lines. John wanted the log cut too, but into 18 equal parts. He painted yellow lines on the log with some yellow lines painted over red lines. The lumberjack came and cut the log by the painted lines. How many cuts did the lumberjack make?

432

Explanation:

If the lumberjack follows Jim's instruction and cuts the log of wood into 24 parts the first time, the log of wood has 24 parts

If the lumberjack follows John's instruction to further cut the log of wood already cut into 24 parts then we would have 24×18= 432 parts of the log of wood

the correct answer is

c. 4

step-by-step explanation:

the given polynomial is

the degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent which is 4.

the -4 is called the leading coefficient.

this polynomial has only one term so it is a monomial.

the correct answer is option c.
