Question

13. A polynomial with one
degree is called:​

Answer 1

the polynomial with degree one is a monomial

Answer 2

A polynomial with degree one is called​ Linear Polynomial

• A polynomial of degree one is called Linear Polynomial
• General Form is ax + b (where a and b are real number and a ≠ 0)
• Example : x + 1, 2x + 5

What is Polynomial

• A function p(x) of the form p(x) = a₀ + a₁x + a₂x² + a₃x³ + ........ + aₙxⁿ is called a Polynomial

• Expression mixed (or composed) of variable, constants and exponents is known as Polynomial

What is Degree of Polynomial

• Degree of Polynomial is termed as the Highest exponent of the variable in a polynomial is known as a Degree of a polynomial.

How To Find Degree of Polynomial (Single Variable)

Degree of a Polynomial with a single variable is it's Highest Power

Example : 6x⁴ + 3x³ +3x² + 2x + 1

• Variable in this polynomial is "x"
• The Highest Power of "x" is 4
• Hence Degree of Given Polynomial is 4

How To Find Degree of Polynomial (Two or More Variables)

Degree of a Polynomial with more than single variable is the sum of the powers of the variable in each term and the Highest sum among them is considered as Degree of that Polynomial

Example : 4x²y - 2xy² + x - 7

• Variables in this polynomial are "x" and "y"

• The Power of Term 4x²y is 3

• The Power of Term 2xy² is 3

• The Power of Term x is 1

• The Power of Term 7 is 0

• Hence Degree of Given Polynomial is 3
