Question

How do I get this answer and what is it

Answer 1

The degree is 5, so the largest exponent of the polynomial is 5. This means the answer is either A or B. Choice C is ruled out because the degree here is 7. Choice D is ruled out because the degree here is 6

For choice A, the leading coefficient is 6. This is the number to the left of the variable term of the largest exponent. So we can rule out choice A (because the leading coefficient should be 7)

Choice B is the answer. It has a degree of 5 and a leading coefficient of 7 and also a constant term of 6. The constant term is simply the term without any variables attached to it.
