An = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 18
a1 = first term = 3
r = common ratio = 4/3
now we sub
a18 = 3 * 4/3^(18 - 1)
a18 = 3 * 4/3^17
a18 = 3 * 133
a18 = 399
SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
The degree of the polynomial
CONCEPT TO BE IMPLEMENTED
POLYNOMIAL
Polynomial is a mathematical expression consisting of variables, constants that can be combined using mathematical operations addition, subtraction, multiplication and whole number exponentiation of variables
DEGREE OF A POLYNOMIAL
Degree of a polynomial is defined as the highest power of its variable that appears with nonzero coefficient
When a polynomial has more than one variable, we need to find the degree by adding the exponents of each variable in each term.
EVALUATION
Here the given polynomial is
In the above polynomial variable is z
The highest power of its variable ( z ) that appears with nonzero coefficient is 5
Hence the degree of the polynomial is 5
FINAL ANSWER
The degree of the polynomial is 5
