Which represents the polynomial written in standard form? 4m – 2m4 – 6m2 + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Any polynomial will have degrees of variable in integers and the degrees would be always positive.

It is conventional to write standard forms of polynomials in the descending powers of x.

i.e. we write for cubic polynomial the term containing x cube, and for power 5 polynomial, the term containing power 4, next power 3, thus strictly in descending order.

The given polynomial is

This is a polynomial because all x have powers in positive integers.

But this is not in standard form as highest degree of 4 is not the first term

Let us rearrange according to powers of m

We get

as standard form

1. 3

2. 4

3. 1

hope this ! have a great day.

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001420

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001448

white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001005

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001037

white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001372

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001083

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001477

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
