Question

state whether the following statements are true or false give reasons to justify your answer : the degree of polynomial -5x^5- 6x^4-8x^2 is 4​

Answer 1

Answer:

the statement is FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that

degree of polynomial is the highest power of any term in a polynomial

since in in this polynomial

that is -5x^5 - 6x^4-8x^2

the highest power in the polynomial is 5

which is the power of -5x

Hence , the degree of the polynomial is 5

NOT 4 .
