#16 and #19 only
answer both as soon as possible.

1. it is not a direct variation because the value k is not kept throughout the ordered pairs

2. -a^5 - 2a³ + 2a², leading coefficient is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. to find the direct variation, we will use y/x = k with k representing our constant throughout the chart. if every value is equal to k, it is a direct variation

for this problem we will assume that the cup sizes are x and the cost is y

so the ordered pairs are (8, 0.90), (12, 1.35), (16, 1.80), and (24, 2.25)

.90/8 = 0.1125 <-- this is our k value for which every result has to be equal to

1.35/12 = 0.1125

1.80/12 = 0.1125

2.25/24 = 0.09375

since the value k was not kept throughout the ordered pairs, this is not a direct variation

2. the standard form of a polynomial is the exponents in descending order.

we have the following polynomial: 2a² - a^5 -2a³

to write it in standard form, we will go in descending order of the exponents. the largest exponent being first

-a^5 - 2a³ + 2a²

the leading coefficient of the polynomial is -1, as there is a negative sign in front of the newly formed polynomial

answer:

it is 28 degrees colder in detroit than philadelphia.

step-by-step explanation:

what number adds to 21  

-7 + ? = 21

-7 + 28 = 21
