If two polynomial equations have real solutions, then will the equation that is the result of adding, subtracting, or multiplying the two polynomial equations also have solutions?

No. A polynomial equation in one variablel ooks like P(x) = Q(x), where P and Q are polynomials.

Consider polynomial equations x^2 = 3 and x^2 = 1.

Obviously they have real solutions.

Subtract the two polynomial equations:

(x^2 - x^2) = (3 - 1)

0 = 2...

We get the polynomial equation 0 = 2. We call this a polynomial equation because single constants are also by definition polynomials.

Obviously 0 = 2 has no real solution.

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
