Question

Determine the coefficient and the degree of each term in each polynomial.
4t^8 − t + 6t^5

Answer 1

The coefficient of a term is the number that comes before the variable (a variable is something that can take multiple values, in this case it is \(t\)).

The degree of a term is the power the variable takes.

For example, the term \(4t^5\) has coefficient 4 and degree 5.

Are you able to apply this to solve your problem?
