what is the degree of the polynomial below? 4x to the third power + 3x to the second power + 6x+5... A. 0 B. 3 C. 1 D. 2

Respuesta :

we are given

highest exponent is 3

degree is the highest exponent

so, degree is 3

Riia

Degree of a polynomial is the greatest power or the greatest exponent . For e.g

[tex] 2x^3 +3x^2 +4x +1 [/tex]

For the above polynominal, the greatest exponent is 3. So the degree is 3 .

Let's check out the question .

[tex] 4x^3+3x^2+6x+5 [/tex]

Here the greatest exponent is 3. SO the degree is 3 and the correct option is B
