When ur polynomial has more then one variable....and this one does...the degree is the highest term degree
7a^3b^2 ....this term has a degree of 5
2a^4...this term has a degree of 4
4b....this term has a degree of 1
15....this term has a degree of 0
so the highest degree term has a degree of 5....so that is the degree of this polynomial.
now if u just had 1 variable, the degree would be the highest exponent
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Her error is in squaring (2y)²
She has (2y)² = 2y²
when it should be 2y × 2y = 4y²
Then
(2y)² = 6² + 8²
4y² = 36 + 64
4y² = 100 ( divide both sides by 4 )
y² = 25 ( take square root of both sides )
y =
= 5
