According to exponent rules, when we multiply two power with the same base we _______ the exponents. 

Example: 

c^6*c^4

add

Classify the polynomial by degree and terms. Is it in standard form? What is the degree? What is the leading coefficient? How many terms does it have?

-4x^3+3x^2-1

Cubic trinomial

Yes it is in standard form (highest to lowest exponent)

degree is 3 (highest exponent)

leading coefficient is -4 (number at front)

has 3 terms

The following polynomial is a perfect square trinomial. What is the value of k?

f(x)=x^2+kx+81

if it is a perfect square, then both factors are the same. we know that 9 times 9 is 81. So, if we add 9 + 9, we get 18.

k = 18

On a windy morning, a hot air balloon starts ascending and flying away from the top of a hill. The altitude, h(x), in feet of the balloon x hours after starting its ascent can be modeled by the function: 

h(x)=-16x^2+56x+96

If factoring to find the roots, what would be the greatest common factor to pull out to begin?

It just wants the GCF.

GCF = 8
