Question

4m^2-3m^6+5m^4
What is the degree of the polynomial ?

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Explanation:

The degree of the whole polynomial is the monomial with the largest degree. The degree of each monomial is its exponent.

4m^2 has a degree of 2

-3m^6 has a degree of 6

5m^4 has a degree of 4

The largest degree(exponent) is 6, so this is the answer.
