Problem 2
Add one term to the polynomial expression
\(14x^{19}-9x^{15}+11x^4+5x^2+3\) to
make it into a 22nd degree polynomial.

Transcribed Image Text:Problem 3
Identify the degree, leading coefficient, and
constant value of each of the following
polynomials:
1. \(f(x)=x^3 - 8 x^2 - x + 8\)
2. \(h(x)=2 x^4 + x^3 - 3 x^2 - x + 1\)
3. \(g(x)=13.2 x^3+3 x^4 - x - 4.4\)
Problem 4
We want to make an open-top box by
cutting out corners of a square piece of
cardboard and folding up the sides. The
cardboard is a 9 inch by 9 inch square. The
volume \(V(x)\) in cubic inches of the open-
top box is a function of the side length \(x\)
in inches of the square cutouts.
1. Write an expression for \(V(x)\).
2. What is the volume of the box when \(x=1\)?
3. What is a reasonable domain for \(V\) in this
context?
(From Unit 2, Lesson 1.)
Problem 5
Consider the polynomial function \(p\)
given by \(p(x)=7x^3 - 2x^2 + 3x+10\).
Evaluate the function at \(x=\text-3\).
