Question

Enter the degree of the polynomial below

7x^7+10x^4+4x^3-5x^11-10x^6-6x^7

A. 11
B. 10
C. 6
D. 7

Answer 1

The degree of a polynomial expression is the highest power in the expression

Rewriting the expression we have

`7x^(7) + 10x^(4)+ 4x^(3)-5 x^(11) -10 x^(6) -6 x^(7)`

We can see that the highest power is 11, hence the degree of the polynomial is 11

Correct answer: A
