Chapter 8.1, Problem 1P

Find the degree of each monomial.

$2b^2{c}^2$

To determine

To find: the degree of the monomial $2b^2{c}^2$ .

Answer to Problem 1P

  $4$

Explanation of Solution

Concept Used:

Degree of monomial: It is equal to the sum of all the exponents of the variables in the monomial.

Calculation:

Consider the given monomial,

  $2b^2{c}^2$

Here, the exponent of b is 2 and the exponent of c is 2.

So, the degree of the monomial is $2+2=4$ .
