Question

Create a trinomial. Write it in ascending order and identify its degree.

Answer 1

A trinomial is an expression with 3 different terms....can u think of any 3 different terms?

Answer 2

Uhmm, Not really.. ):

Answer 3

ok, let me give an example, 3 terms--->1,x,x^2
ascending order--->1+x+x^2
degree = highest exponent = 2
got this?

Answer 4

Yes.

Answer 5

good, so now you can create your own trinomials, as many as you want.... :)

Answer 6

So for example, 3+5x-x^2?

Answer 7

absolutely correct, thats a trinomial ... :)

Answer 8

And the degree is 2?

Answer 9

that too in ascending order....degree?

Answer 10

yes, correct :)

Answer 11

Thank you so much!! (:

Answer 12

another example, x+x^5+x^9
degree =9

Answer 13

welcome ^_^

Answer 14

So the highest exponent is the degree?

Answer 15

yes, exactly.

Answer 16

Thank you again. c:
