Question

Check my answer Please (Algebra 1)

Answer 1

x2y − 7xy + xyz + x

Answer 2

That above is a 2nd degree polynomial am I correct???

Answer 3

Is that X squared?

Answer 4

"The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms when the polynomial is expressed in its canonical form consisting of a linear combination of monomials. The degree of a term is the \(sum\) of the exponents of the variables that appear in it"
(wiki)

Answer 5

So it is a 2nd degree polynomial being 2 and yes its x^2

Answer 6

It's not.
Please read the definition of the degree of a polynomial, \(and\) the degree of a \(term\).

Answer 7

It's not because if you look only at the degree of y, then the degree would be 1.

Answer 8

@mathmate so do i add all of the exponents together making it a 7th dgree polynomial?

Answer 9

I submittedt and got it wrongplease tell me what it is so i can better understand

Answer 10

"The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its \(terms\), ..."
Can you tell me how many terms there are in the given expression?

Answer 11

4

Answer 12

So it would be a 3rd degree olynomial

Answer 13

Good. Can you tell me the degree of each term?
Recall "...The degree of a \(term\) is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear in it"

Answer 14

Let me show you this one and ill tell you tedegrees of terms let me know f im right please

Answer 15

ok

Answer 16

Also remember \(xyz\equiv x^1y^1z^1\) to help you add up the exponents.

Answer 17

4x^2+3xy+12yz 1st term goes to the 2nd degree 2nd term goes to the 2nd degree and 3rd term goes to the second degree so that is a 2nd degree trinomial

Answer 18

Exactly! Perfect!
