Answer:

leading coefficient: 2
degree: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...

6, 0, 7, 1

The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:

2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4

The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>

When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.

Is the square root of -11.2 a rational number?

Schach [20]

No, it is an imaginary number.
Can't take the square root of a negative number without creating a method termed an imaginary number, which is the square root of -1 which they have used " i " to signify.
Then square root of -11.2 would be written Sqrt(11.2)i. The Sqrt(11.2) = 3.3466
so the answer is 3.3466i
