Question

what is the degree of the polynomial p(y)=y³+2y+4​

Answer 1

Answer:

The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its monomials (individual terms) with non-zero coefficients. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear in it, and thus is a non-negative integer.

Hence, for 2−y

2

−y

3

+2y
