Question

Choose the correct classification of 5x^6 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4

A. Third degree polynomial

B. Fourth degree trinomial

C. First degree binomial

D. Sixth degree polynomial

I’m thinking that it would be B, but I’m not sure. Please help. :((

Answer 1

hello :
D. Sixth degree polynomial
the form : ax^6+bx^5 +cx^4 +dx^3+lx^2+kx +p
a=5
b=0
c=0
d=2
l=3
k=0
p= - 4

Answer 2

5x^6 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4

it has 4 terms, so it is not a binomial or a trinomial. When u have 1 variable, which this problem does, it only has an x, the degree is the highest exponent.

so this is a 6th degree polynomial
