In Exercises 102–103, perform the indicated operations. Assume
that exponents represent whole numbers.
102. (x2n – 3x" + 5) + (4x2" – 3x" – 4) – (2x2 – 5x" – 3)
103. (y3n – 7y2n + 3) – (-3y3n – 2y2" – 1) + (6y3n – yn + 1)
104. From what polynomial must 4x? + 2x – 3 be subtracted to
obtain 5x? – 5x + 8?
Make Sense? In Exercises 135–138, determine whether each
statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your
reasoning.
135. I use the same ideas to multiply (V2 + 5) (V2 + 4) that I
did to find the binomial product (x + 5)(x + 4).
136. I used a special-product formula and simplified as follows:
(V2 + V5)? = 2 + 5 = 7.
137. In some cases when I multiply a square root expression and
its conjugate, the simplified product contains a radical.
138. I use the fact that 1 is the multiplicative identity to both
rationalize denominators and rewrite rational expressions
with a common denominator.
In Exercises 101–103, perform the indicated operations.

- In Exercises 115–116, express each polynomial in standard form-that is, in descending powers of x. a. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the large rectangle. b. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the small, unshaded rectangle. c. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the shaded blue region. 115. -x + 9- -x +5- x + 3 x + 15 -x + 4- x + 2 116. x + 3 x + 1arrow_forwardFor Exercises 115–120, factor the expressions over the set of complex numbers. For assistance, consider these examples. • In Section R.3 we saw that some expressions factor over the set of integers. For example: x - 4 = (x + 2)(x – 2). • Some expressions factor over the set of irrational numbers. For example: - 5 = (x + V5)(x – V5). To factor an expression such as x + 4, we need to factor over the set of complex numbers. For example, verify that x + 4 = (x + 2i)(x – 2i). 115. а. х - 9 116. а. х? - 100 117. а. х - 64 b. x + 9 b. + 100 b. x + 64 118. а. х — 25 119. а. х— 3 120. а. х — 11 b. x + 25 b. x + 3 b. x + 11arrow_forwardDraw a diagram to illustrate 2 2/3.arrow_forward
- In Exercises 126–129, determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. 126. Once a GCF is factored from 6y – 19y + 10y“, the remaining trinomial factor is prime. 127. One factor of 8y² – 51y + 18 is 8y – 3. 128. We can immediately tell that 6x? – 11xy – 10y? is prime because 11 is a prime number and the polynomial contains two variables. 129. A factor of 12x2 – 19xy + 5y² is 4x – y.arrow_forwardShow workarrow_forwardHelp?arrow_forward
