Write the degree of each of the following polynomials:
Write the degree of each of the following polynomials:
(i) 5x3 + 4x2 + 7x
(ii) 4 – y2
(iii) 5t – √7
(iv) 3
Answer
(i) 5x3 has highest power in the given polynomial which power is 3. Therefore, degree of polynomial is 3.
(ii) – y2 has highest power in the given polynomial which power is 2. Therefore, degree of polynomial is 2.
(iii) 5t has highest power in the given polynomial which power is 1. Therefore, degree of polynomial is 1.
(iv) There is no variable in the given polynomial. Therefore, degree of polynomial is 0.
