Question

1. What is the degree of the polynomial?
t3 + 5t2 – 3t + 2

Answer 1

degree 3

Explanation:

The degree of a polynomial is determined by the largest exponent of the variable within the polynomial.

Given

t³ + 5t² - 3t + 2

The leading term t³ has exponent 3 , then

The polynomial is degree 3

Answer 2

I’m assuming that the first number is supposed to be raised by the power of 3. The degree of this polynomial would be 3 then if this is the case.
