Question

A polynomial of degree 7 in x has at most how many different terms in it ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

No. of terms in this polynomial = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of terms = Degree of the polynomial + 1

Therefore, No. of terms in this polynomial = 7+1

No. of terms in this polynomial = 8.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the maximum number of terms in a biquadratic polynomial, you need to deduct one from the maximum power given in the polynomial.

Because the maximum number of terms in a polynomial is always one less than the maximum power of the polynomial.

To convert the biquadratic polynomial into a quadratic polynomial, the method of synthetic division can be used or opted for.
