Equation A 2x - (2x)2 + 4x-1
Equation B (2x)2 + 4.4x - 9
Equation C (-8x)-2 - (3x)3 +7
Part B:
This is closed because
of the sum are
and the sum is a polynomial.

Answer 1

This is closed under addition because the sum of the polynomial produces another polynomial.

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial is an expression that involves the addition, subtraction and multiplication of variables.

Polynomials will be closed under an operation if the operation produces another polynomial.

(3x⁴ + 5x - 7) + (2x - (2x)² + 4x - 1) + [(-8x)⁻² - (3x)³ + 7]

= 3x⁴ - 27x³ - 4x² + 9x - 1 + (-8x)⁻²

This is closed under addition because the sum of the polynomial produces another polynomial.
