Question

Determine the degree of each polynomial function. f (x) = 7x5 + 2x4 + x3 - 2x2 g(x) = 9x - 2x2 + 3

f (x) = (x4 + 1)2
g(x) = (3x - 5)2 + 3x3

Answer 1

The degree of the polynomial for the first expression is: 5

For the second expression: 2

For the third expression: 8

For the fourth expression: 3

To find the degree of a polynomial, look for the highest term on a variable.
