Answer:

3rd

Explanation:

The degree is the highest exponent that the polynomial has.

This one has a 3, 2, 1, and 0 degree, and out of those 3 is the largest, so we know the overall degree is 3rd degree.

This is an example of a polynomial.

To find the degree of the polynomial, find the highest value exponent.

The highest value exponent in the given polynomial is 3.

Therefore, the degree of [ 5x³ + 3x² - 4x + 1 ] is 3.

Best of Luck!
