u have 3 terms.....and since u are only dealing with 1 variable with the highest exponent being 4, then what u have here is a 4th degree trinomial. U have a lead coefficient of -2. Ur constant term is -10 And ur middle term (24x^2) has a degree of 2
a cubic binomial.....a binomial has 2 terms and it being cubic means the highest term has a degree of 3 example would be : x^3 - 4
how many constants can a polynomial have ? I am not sure about this one...I wanna say 1 because u can simplify it if it has more then 1...but I am not 100% sure on this one
3x^2 + 6xy -10x^5 + y^6 - 10x^3y^5
when u have a polynomial with more then 1 variable, such as this one, the degree is not the highest exponent, it is the highest term.....-10x^3y^5...u add the exponents....so this term has a degree of 8, and it is the highest one in this problem....so this is an 8th degree polynomial with 5 terms
