Question:

Write the degree of each of the following polynomials:(i) 5x³+4x²+7x (ii) 4−y² (iii) 5t−√7 (iv) 3

Solution:

(i) The power of term is 5x³ and exponent is 3. So degree is 3
(ii) The power of term is y² and exponent is 2. So degree is 2
(iii) The power of term is 5t and exponent is 1. So degree is 1
(iv) The only term here is 3 which can be written as 3x⁰ and so exponent is 0 or degree is 0.
