Question

determine whether each expression is a monomial. If so, determine its degree. 1. -3/7mn^2p^5 and B.) 5a^2b/8c^3d^2

Answer 1

\[-\frac{ 3 }{ 7 }mn^2p^5\]

Answer 2

they are both monomials, b/c no subtraction or addition signs separate them

Answer 3

the degree for A is 8 i believe b/c the exponents of the variables add up to 8
1+2+5

Answer 4

is it 3/5 as a degree possible since i don't know what to put for b

Answer 5

almost, you would add the top exponents, but then subtract the bottom exponents. so instead of 3/5 its 3-5
