Question

What is the degree of each polynomial?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Degree of a polynomial is the highest sum of exponents for any one monomial of the polynomial.

`-w^0` Degree : 0

Degree of monomial 'w' = 0

`36x^8-2x^9+8x^7` Degree : 9

Highest degree term of the polynomial is 2x⁹,

Therefore, degree of polynomial = 9

`(rs)/(3)+(xy)/(7)` Degree : 2

Degree of x + degree of y = 1 + 1 = 2

`3x^4+9x^3-4x^5+1` Degree : 5

Highest degree term of the polynomial is 4x⁵,

Therefore, degree of polynomial = 5
