Example Question #18 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
Find the degree of the following polynomial:
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply locate the largest exponent.
In this case, the largest exponent is 
Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 
Example Question #18 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
Find the degree of polynomial 
Find the degree of polynomial g(x)
The degree of a polynomial is the value of the highest exponent in the polynomial.
The highest power any of our terms is being raised to is 9. Notice that it has nothing todo with the numbers in front of the x's, but rather the number they are being raised to.
So, our answer is 9.
Example Question #19 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
Find the degree of the following polynomial:
Find the degree of the following polynomial:
To find the degree of a polynomial, we simply need to look at its highest exponent.
The degree will be equal to the highest exponent, which in this case, is 7
So, the correct answer is 7
Example Question #211 : Polynomials
Find the degree of the following polynomial:
Cannot be determined from the information provided
Find the degree of the following polynomial:
Finding the degree of a polynomial is simple, if you know what you are looking for. To find the degree of a polynomial, simply choose the highest exponent in the expression.
In this case, 89 is the largest exponent, making our degree, 89.
Example Question #22 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
What is the degree of the following polynomial?
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply find the highest exponent in the expression. As five is the highest exponent above, it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #23 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
What is the degree of the following polynomial?
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply find the highest exponent in the expression. As eight is the highest exponent above, it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #24 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
What is the degree of the following polynomial?
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply find the highest exponent in the expression. As nine is the highest exponent above, it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #25 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
What is the degree of the following polynomial?
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply find the highest exponent in the expression. As one is the highest exponent above (remember that no exponent means that the variable is being raised to one), it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #26 : How To Find The Degree Of A Polynomial
Find the degree in the following polynomial:
To find the degree of a polynomial, you simply locate the variable with the largest exponent, and that exponent is the degree. So, in the polynomial
we see that the largest exponent is 
Example Question #212 : Polynomials
Which of these equations is a third-degree polynomial?
The largest exponent on the correct answer and only the correct answer is 3.
