Question

What is the degree of 7x6 - 6x5 + 2x3 + x - 8?

Answer 1

The degree would be the highest exponent there is. In this case, the highest exponent is 6, so the degree of the polynomial is 6.

Answer 2

The Degree is the highest power of a variable in the given expression, here variable is \(x\) and it has Highest Power of (\6\) as you can see from first term that is \(7x^6\), so Degree is \(6\) for this Polynomial...
