Question

Write the degree of the polynomial P(y )= 5y 4 + 0 y 3+ 0 y 5 + 6 y + 7​

Answer 1

Answer:

The degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degrees of its monomials with non-zero coefficients.

Degree of

first term =x

=5+6+5=16

∴ the highest power is 16

∴ Degree of the polynomial is 16

Answer 2

Answer:

Degree of P(y) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

P(y) = 5y^4 + 0 y^3+ 0 y^5 + 6 y + 7

=5y^4 + 0 + 0+ 6 y + 7

=5y^4 + 6 y + 7

hence the degree of polynomial = 4
