Question

state the degree -4a^3 b^2 c^5

Answer 1

whats the highest degree in this equation
In other words whats the highest exponene

Answer 2

@HugoHuynh please you have to summ all of your exponents, so degree=3+2+5=10

Answer 3

I dont think so ...

Answer 4

I always thought that you just had to combine like terms then you find the highest power
and that is the degree of the polynomial

Answer 5

@swissgirl sorry, you are wrong, by definition the overall degree of a monomial is the sum of single degrees of its letters

Answer 6

hmmm lemme google this

Answer 7

ummm take a look at this link

Answer 8

@swissgirl sorry, note that we have a monomial not a polynomial

Answer 9

ohhhhhhhh

Answer 10

K sorry for the confusion ... thanks :D

Answer 11

@swissgirl thanks!

Answer 12

@swissgirl you are welcome!:)

Answer 13

the degree is going to be 10?

Answer 14

Yup

Answer 15

@HugoHuynh yes!

Answer 16

For the polynomial f(x)=1-2x+5x^4

Answer 17

is it False

Answer 18

@HugoHuynh you are right, if you write your function as below:
\[x ^{4}(5-\frac{ 2 }{ x ^{3} }+\frac{ 1 }{ x ^{4} })\]
you can verify that for x-->+/- infinity, your function --->+infinity

Answer 19

the point (2,0) lies on the graph of p(x)=x^4-2x^3-x+2

Answer 20

I would think is true
