Question

Find the degree of the following expressions 7x 3 -5x y2+3xy+6y+8​

Answer 1

ANSWER 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the polynomial 2−y

2

−y

3

+2y

8

in standard form. The term with the highest exponent should be first, and the term with the lowest exponent should be last. This will help us see which term has the exponent with the largest value. Therefore, the standard form is:

2y

8

−y

3

−y

2

+2

The power is simply number in the exponent. In the polynomial, 2y

8

−y

3

−y

2

+2, the power of the first term is 8. Since we have arranged the polynomial to put the largest exponent first that is 8 which is the degree of the polynomial.

Hence, the degree of the polynomial is 8
