To fit a polynomial through n+1 data points, what degree must the polynomial be? recall that a polynomial of degree latex: nn has the form latex: y = a_n x^n + a_{n-1} x^{n-1} + \cdots + a_1 x + a_0.y = a n x n + a n − 1 x n − 1 + ⋯ + a 1 x + a 0 .

  n

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial of degree n will fit any n+1 data points that describe a function.

Various interpolation methods have been developed to help you find the coefficients of the polynomial. Among them are "direct" and "Lagrange polynomial interpolation."

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

ratio is 2 : 9

the answer is three

13.5 : 3
