Degree

A polynomial's degree is simply its highest exponent.

So, to find the degree of this polynomial, we should find its highest exponent.

Given polynomial:


\bf{f^(10)+5f^9+9f^3}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The first term has an exponent of 10.

The second term has an exponent of 9.

The third term has an exponent of 3.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The first term has the highest exponent, which is 10. Therefore, 10 is the degree of this polynomial.
