Question

Classify -6x5 + 4x3 + 3x2 + 11 by degree.

Answer 1

Answer:

This is a 5th degree single variable polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to classify the given polynomial $- 6 x^{5} + 4x^{3} + 3x^{2} + 11$ by degree.

This is a 5th-degree single variable polynomial. (Answer)

Note :

(i) ax + b is the general form of a single degree i.e. linear single variable polynomial.

(ii) cx² + dx + e is the general form of two degrees i.e. quadratic single variable polynomial.

(iii) px³ + qx² + rx + s is the general form of three degrees i.e. cubic single variable polynomial.

In this way, the degree of a polynomial increases with the maximum power of the variable.
