Question

write the degree pf 3$x^{2}$--x+1

Answer 1

Degree of 3x² - x + 1 is 2

• Degree of a polynomial is the value of the greatest exponent (except the constant). To find the degree all that you have to do is find the largest exponent in the polynomial.

3x² - x + 1 includes 3 terms :

• 3x² is 1st term
• -x is 2nd term
• 1 is 3rd term

⇒ The exponent of the first term is 2

⇒ The exponent of the first term is 1

⇒ The exponent of the third term is 0

Hence Answer is 2
