Question

For the polynomial below, what is the power of the term with the coefficient of 1? x^3+1/3X^4+6x+5 A.4 B.2 C.1 D.3

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is (D). 3.

Step-by-step explanation: The given polynomial is

`x^3+(1)/(3)x^4+6x+5.`

We are given to find the power of the term with the coefficient of 1.

In the given polynomial,

`\textup{the coefficient of x}^4=(1)/(3),\\\\\textup{the coefficient of x}^3=1,\\\\\textup{the coefficient of x}=6,\\\\\textup{and the constant term}=5.`

Therefore, the term with coefficient 1 is x³ and its power is 3.

Thus, the correct option is (D). 3.

Answer 2

The coefficient is constant multiplied by x
Looking at the polynomial above we find x^3 has coefficient =1
Therefore the answer is D
