Question

Find the degree of the following polynomial: x + x² + x5-x² +11​

Answer 1

We know that the degree is the value of the greatest exponent of expression (except the constant ) in the polynomial. To find the degree all that you have to do is find the largest exponent in the polynomial.

In polynomial ,

$\sf \: x² + x^{5} -x² +11$

The value of the largest exponent is 5 since the second term has the largest exponent.

The degree is 5
