What is the degree of the polynomial t2 + 12t + 36?
1
2
3
36

Please help me!!

Answer 1

The degree of something is (basically) the highest power in it. (Read more on Wikipedia.)

I assume by t2 you mean t^2. If so, the highest power in this expression is 2. Thus, the highest degree is 2. Thus, the degree of the expression is 2.

Answer 2

t squared.

Answer 3

Yeah! The answer is 2.

Answer 4
