Determine whether function is a monomial function given that a and b are positive integers. Explain your reasoning.y=4abx^-2
Added by Sebastian H.
Step 1
A monomial function is a function that can be written in the form f(x) = ax^n, where a is a constant and n is a non-negative integer. Now, let's look at the given function y = 4abx^-2. We can rewrite this as y = 4ab/x^2. This function cannot be written in the Show more…
