Tostate:the degree and leading coefficient of each polynomial in one variable
Answer to Problem 93STP
degree: 7; leading coefficient:
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given polynomial is
Concept used:
The highest power of the variable that occurs in the polynomial is called the degree of a polynomial. The leading coefficient is the term with the highest power, and its coefficient is called the leading coefficient.
Calculation:
As the given polynomial is
As the highest power of the variable that occurs in the polynomial is called the degree of a polynomial.
Therefore, the degree is 7.
And the leading coefficient is the term with the highest power, so leading coefficient is
Hence, degree: 7; leading coefficient:
