classify each one by degree and number of terms. 1. 9x2yz 2. 18x2 + 5ab – 6y 3. x + 2xyz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first tell me what do u understand by the term degree of polynomial

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*A monomial is a polynomial with one term. *A binomial is a polynomial with two terms. *A trinomial is a polynomial with three terms. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables in the term.

Im sorry i did the questions wrong: 1. 9x^2yz 2. 18x^2 + 5ab – 6y 3. x + 2xyz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9x2yz what do u think is the degree of this polynomial

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope its 2+1+1 = 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ok and the term is 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope its one
