Question

Which polynomial is written in ascending order?

a)2²−(+4)
b)q²=4−1
c)4+x²−1
d)4−1=1²

Answer 1

After considering the provided options and correcting for typos, the polynomial written in ascending order is option (c) '-1 + 4 + x²', assuming that the typos and equal signs are ignored.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which polynomial is written in ascending order, we need to analyze the given options and arrange the terms of each polynomial, if necessary, from the lowest power to the highest. The correct notation for a polynomial in ascending order should be like c + bt + at², where a, b, and c are constants.

Let's go through the options provided to find the one in ascending order:

• (a) This expression cannot be considered because there seems to be a typo.
• (b) The expression 'q²=4−1' is not properly written and contains an equal sign, suggesting it is an equation rather than a polynomial.
• (c) The option '4+x²−1' can be rewritten in ascending order as '-1 + 4 + x²', so this option could be the correct one if the typo is ignored.
• (d) Like option (b), '4−1=1²' contains an equal sign and hence cannot be a polynomial.

Thus after considering the given options and making some adjustments for typos, the polynomial written in ascending order is option (c) when corrected to '-1 + 4 + x²'.
