Determine if the graph represents a polynomial function. If it is a polynomial function, then determine the number of turning points and the least degree possible. a) This graph is not a polynomial. This line is of the form y = mx + b; there are no variables in the expression.

b) This is not a polynomial. Lines are not polynomials. There are no turning points.

c) Yes, this graph represents a polynomial. This line is of the form y = mx + b; there are no turning points as it is a polynomial of degree zero.

d) Yes, this graph represents a polynomial. This line is of the form y = mx + b; there are no turning points as it is a polynomial of degree one.

The accompanying table shows the numbers of male and female students in a particular country who received bachelor's degrees in business in a recent year. complete parts (a) and (b) below. business degrees nonbusiness degrees total male 189131 634650 823781 female 169539 885329 1054868 total 358670 1519979 1878649 (a) find the probability that a randomly selected student is male, given that the student received a business degree. the probability that a randomly selected student is male, given that the student received a business degree, is nothing. (round to three decimal places as needed.) (b) find the probability that a randomly selected student received a business degree, given that the student is female. the probability that a randomly selected student received a business degree, given that the student is female, is nothing. (round to three decimal places as needed.)
