When we add or subtract polynomials, the addition or subtraction is applied to the coefficients of the terms of equal powers.

For the given polynomials, we are required to do subtraction as follows:
(-4.1 x^2 + 0.9 x - 9.8) - (1.7 x^2 - 2.4 x - 1.6)
= -4.1 x^2 + 0.9 x - 9.8 - 1.7 x^2 + 2.4 x + 1.6
= (-4.1-1.7) x^2 + (0.9+2.4) x + (-9.8+1.6)
= -5.8 x^2 + 3.3 x - 8.2

The final expression (solution) is:
-5.8 x^2 + 3.3 x - 8.2

Which of the five measures of center (the mean, the median, the trimmed mean, the weighted mean, and the mode) can be calculated

Sever21 [200]

Quantitative data is information that can be measured, while qualitative data is descriptive data which can not be measured.
All five measures (the mean, the median, the trimmed mean, the weighted mean and the mode) can be calculated for quantitative data only, because they all use values in order to be calculated.

Is 0.6 repeating a rational number

julsineya [31]

Any decimal number that is repeating can be written in the form $\frac{a}{b}$ with b not equal to zero, so they are rational numbers.

The short answer is yes, 0.6 repeating is a rational number.

What does these expression represent? 12f+24

Otrada [13]

Answer: the expression 12f + 24 represents 12 times a quantity, added to 24.

Expplanation.

The expression 12f + 24 is an algebraic expression, especifically a first degree binomial; this is, a polynomial of two terms, whose maximum power is 1.

The algebraic expressions are used to represent word statements in mathematical language.

You can analyze each term of the expression and then tell what the total expresssion represents:

The first term 12f, where f is a variable with degree 1 (the exponent of the variable), represents the multiplication of a quantity (represented by the variable f) by 12.

24 is the constant term, it represents an constand addend.

Hence, the total expression represents the multiplication of a quantity by 12, and, after the multplication is done, added with 24.
