Question

State the degree of each polynomial. If it is not a polynomial in one variable, explain why.

Answer 1

Answer:

The degree of the polynomial is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Polynomial = $7x^4 + 5x^2 +x - 9$

To Find:

The degree of the polynomial = ?

Solution:

The degree of the polynomial is the highest degree in the polynomial expression.

Here, the degrees are  4, 2, 1

and the coefficients are  7 , 5 , 1

and the constant  term is -9

The Highest  among the degrees is 4

Thus the degree of the polynomial is  4
