Plz mark my answer as brainliest plz thank also and don't forget to follow so that you get your answers in a jiffy.
(i) 1
(ii) 0
(iii) 5
(iv) 7
Degree of a polynomial in one variable = highest power of the variable in algebraic expression
(i) 2x – 1 Power of x = 1
Highest power of the variable x in the given expression = 1
Hence, degree of the polynomial 2x – 1 = 1
(ii) –10
There is no variable in the given term.
Let us assume that the variable in the given expression is x.
– 10 = –10x0 Power of x = 0
Highest power of the variable x in the given expression = 0
Hence, degree of the polynomial – 10 = 0
(iii) x3 – 9x + 3x5 Powers of x = 3, 1 and 5 respectively.
Highest power of the variable x in the given expression = 5
Hence, degree of the polynomial x3 – 9x + 3x5= 5
(iv) y3 (1 – y4)
The equation can be written as, y3 (1 – y4) = y3 – y7
Powers of y = 3 and 7 respectively.
Highest power of the variable y in the given expression = 7
Hence, degree of the polynomial y3 (1 – y4) = 7
