Answer: 5th degree binomial

Note: You can say it's a quintic binomial but I find its easier to go with "5th degree" instead of "quintic" 

------------------------------------------------

How to get this answer:
The degree is the largest exponent for single variable polynomials such as this one. We see that 5 is the largest exponent, so the degree is 5. We consider this a quintic polynomial (think "quintuplets" which is how I remember). Though to be fair, the term "quintic" isn't used too much. Any degree larger than 4 you just state the number followed by "st", "nd", or "th" which is easiest I think. 

This is a binomial because it has 2 terms. The terms are separated by a minus sign or subtraction sign. We can think of it as adding a negative
17n^5 - n^4 = 17n^5 + (-n^4)
The two terms 17n^5 and -n^4 are separated by a plus sign. 
In general, terms of a polynomial are separated by either a plus sign or a minus sign.

The distance on the number line from -10 to -2 equals 5x – 12. What is the value of x?
Troyanec [42]

It would be: - 2 - (-10) = 5x - 12

= -2 + 10 = 5x - 12

= 8 + 12 = 5x

= x = 20 / 5

= x = 4
