Answer:


n=10

Explanation:

A monomial is an algebraic expression in which the only operations that appear between the variables are the product and the power of the natural exponent.

Given a variable
x, a natural number
a and a real number
n the expression:


ax^n

Is a monomial.

Where:


a=Coefficient\\n=Monomial\hspace{3} degree

Given this monomial:


3x^(10)

You can extract the following information:


a=3\\n=10

So we can conclude that the degree of the monomial is 10
