The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the expression. The given polynomial is 4h^5 + 3h^3 + h^2 - 6. The highest power of h in the polynomial is 5. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 5, making it a quintic polynomial.

Answer:

Quintic

Explanation:

the degree of a polynomial is determined by the variable with the largest exponent in the expression.

3h³ ← is of degree 3

6 ← is of degree 1

4h² ← is of degree 2

4
h^(5) ← is of degree 5

then the degree of the polynomial is 5 , or a Quintic
