Degree: 5; leading coefficient: 10

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify if f(x) = 10x^5 + 7x^4+5 is a polynomial function, then state its degree and leading coefficient or not.

  • Polynomial

A polynomial is an algebraic expression containing two or more terms that have same variables but may have different exponents combined through mathematical symbol(+,-,*or/)

So, f(x) = 10x^5 + 7x^4+5 is a polynomial function

  • Degree of polynomial

The degree of polynomial is the highest degree obtained by sum of all exponents of individual terms in the polynomial.

So, f(x) = 10x^5 + 7x^4+5 has highest degree 5

Degree = 5

  • Leading Coefficient

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of first term of the polynomial.

So, f(x) = 10x^5 + 7x^4+5 has  leading coefficient = 10

So, Leading coefficient = 10

So, Degree: 5; leading coefficient: 10

Option D is correct.
