f(x) = -2x + 7x^2
when this equation is put into standard form it will be f(x) = 7x^2 -2x
The degree is the exponent of the first term
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the first term is 7x^2 therefore the degree would be 2
(This polynomial would be a quadratic binomial because it has a degree of two and has two terms)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the degree of the polynomial function would be 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

Find the degree of the polynomial function.
f(x) = πx5 - 6x4 - 9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you help me with this @Little-Ho
OpenStudy (anonymous):
f(x) = πx^5 - 6x^4 - 9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry just got back
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so the equation that you now have is great because it is already in standard form
f(x) = πx^5 - 6x^4 - 9
πx^5 is the first term with the highest exponent
that exponent (5) is the degree of this polynomial function
