To estimate the degree of a polynomial, you just have to take a look at the highest power in the expression. Since here, that is number 4, then it means that this polynomial is a fourth degree polynomial, or quartic polynomial, if you want to sound smart. :)
The amount of paper that are needed to line the bottom of 3 drawers with paper is equal to 2,160 square inches.
<h3>How to determine the amount of paper?</h3>
First of all, we would calculate the area of the bottom of each drawer as follows:
Area = length × width
Area = 36 × 20
Area = 720 square inches.
Next, we would multiply this area by 3:
Total area = 720 × 3
Total area = 2,160 square inches.

Set up two fractions:
8/x and 3/5
Set them equal to each other and cross multiply to get:
8*5 = 3x
40 = 3x
13.3 = x or 13 and 1/3 feet tall.
