Example Question #11 : 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 a variable with no visible exponent is being raised to the power one), it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #11 : 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 #11 : 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 #15 : 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 two is the highest exponent above, it is also the degree of the polynomial.
Example Question #205 : Variables
What is the degree of the following polynomial?
To find the degree of a polynomial, simply find the highest exponent in the expression. At a glance, it appears that two is the highest exponent, however, because the whole polynomial is being squared, the highest exponent (and the exponent of all variables above) is actually four.
Example Question #206 : Variables
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, it is also the degree of the polynomial.
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 #207 : Variables
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 #11 : 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 #141 : Polynomial Operations
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.
