mathstudent55 · Answer

In a polynomial:
The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of all the variables of the term.
A coefficient is a number by itself or a number that multiplies one or more variables.
The degree of the polynomial is the same as the highest degree of any term of the polynomial.
