Question

What is coefficient of the term of degree of degree 5 in the polynomial below 3x^6+5-x^2+4x^5-9 which one is the right answer and how would i show my work in a explanation.? A. 3 B. 4 C. 6 D. 5

Answer 1

B. 4

Explanation:

We are looking for the coefficient of the term x⁵. When we see it in the polynomial as 4x⁵, our coefficient and answer would then be 4.

This is an identification problem. You look for the term and you determine the coefficient. It's just look, find, and answer.
