The degree is the value of the highest power the highest power is y^4, so the degree is 4
polynomials never divide by placeholders and the placeholders have to have whole number exponents (no 1/2 or -2) first one is wrong (√x=x^(1/2)) 2nd is right, that is (1/5)x+2 3rd is wrong, x has a negative, that would be 1/(x^5) 4th is wrong, has only 1 term (35x²)
cubic means 3rd degree quartic means 4th degree quadratic means 2nd degree highest exponent is 4x^2, it is 2 quadratic trinomial trinomial means 3 terms which it has
answer is quadratic trinomial
2 terms, binomial highest exponnet is 3 cubic binomial
1. To find the degree of the polynomial find the variable with the highest exponent, in this case is y^4 which means the degree of the exponent is 4. 2. 1, 2 and 3 are polynomials because there are more than one terms in the expression. 3. It would be a quadratic trinomial. 4. It would be a cubic binomial.
