SIMPLE POLYNOMIAL QUESTION: 3x2y + 4xy + 1 – 5x4y – 6y WRITE IN DESENDING ORDER< CLASSIFY THE POLYNOMIAL< AND STATE THE DEGREE OF IT

Answer 1

SORRY ITS: 3x^2y + 4xy + 1 – 5x^4y – 6y

Answer 2

@sohailiftikhar @jowjayjax @LynFran

Answer 3

what you think ?

Answer 4

I think that the 5x would go first and then the 4? or is it based on the exponent?

Answer 5

or 6y

Answer 6

here the maximum degree of x is 4 so this is the degree of equation and now right this term at start and so on

Answer 7

what is the degree of the polynomial<?

Answer 8

4

Answer 9

ok and then for descending order how would i do that?

Answer 10

it will be greater power of x to towards lower power of x

Answer 11

so it would be 5x4y-6y+4xy+3x2y+1?

Answer 12

start from x^4 and then x^3 and so on

Answer 13

I'm still confused on what the descending order would be?

Answer 14

Oder is the degree of variable means power like x^4 here Oder is 4 and it is greater degree now right x^3 then x^2 then x^1 then x^0 this is the descending Oder

Answer 15

what would the descending order start off with in this specific polynomial? could you just give me the first two to get me going?

Answer 16

ok now look the term containting higher power of x like
-5x^4y+0x^3+3x^2y+4x^1y-6x^0y

Answer 17

this is your descending oder

Answer 18

thank you :-)

Answer 19

np:)

Answer 20

wait so it is this right>?
-5x^4y+3x^2y+4xy-6y

Answer 21

yes

Answer 22

okay, and how would i classify this polynomial based on its terms?

Answer 23

would it be a fifth-degree polynomial?

Answer 24

no here the maximum degree of x is 4 so it's fourth degree

Answer 25

oh ok, so its not a trinomial either?

Answer 26

how'd you know it was a fourth degree? Just based on the maximum degree of x?

Answer 27

yes

Answer 28

ok, thanks again!

Answer 29

it depend upon the power of variable in the polynomial

Answer 30

np :) again
