Answer 1

GIVEN :

The polynomial is $5z^3-2z^4-9z^2+z$

TO FIND :

The degree of the given polynomial $5z^3-2z^4-9z^2+z$

SOLUTION :

Given polynomial is $5z^3-2z^4-9z^2+z$

Degree of a polynomial: The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its given monomials with non-zero coefficients.

When we notice with given polynomial we have that highest degree in the given polynomial $5z^3-2z^4-9z^2+z$ is 4

∴ the degree of the given polynomial $5z^3-2z^4-9z^2+z$ is 4.
