It depends on the power to which the single variable is raised in that one term.

How do you find the degree of a polyomial?

For a single variable, the degree is the highest power that appears in the polynomial.


What is meant by the degree of a monomial and polynomial?

The degree is the highest power of the variable that appears in it.(x2 + x + 9) is a second degree polynomial(Q4 - 72) is a fourth degree polynomial( z ) is a first degree monomialSo the degree of a polynomial in one variable is the highest power of the variable.For example, [ 2x3 - 7x ] has degree 3.The degree of a polynomial in two or more variables is the greatest sum of theexponents in any single term.For example, [ 5m3 + m2n - mn2 ] has degree 4.And a degree of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of its variables.For example, [ 4a2b3 ] has degree 5.


How do you identify the polynomials of degree one?

The degree of a polynomial is determined by the highest degree of the terms within it, and the degree of the terms is determined by the power of the variable and the amount of variables in it.For example, the term 3x has a degree of one, as does 5y. However when there is more than one variable you add the degrees together, so 4xy has a degree of 2, not 1. Any single variable to the 2nd power e.g. 8x2 also has a degree of 2.So a polynomial of one degree is a polynomial where each of its terms only have one variable to the first power so 5+x is to one degree, as is 1+2x+3y+4z despite having more than one variable in the expression.


What is the degree of the polynomial 2st4 plus s2t2 - 9s5t plus 21?

2st4 + s2t2 - 9s5t + 21 The degree of a polynomial with more than one variable is the largest sum of the powers in any single term. So the degree of the given polynomial is 6 (-9s5t1; 5 + 1).


What is a monomial or sum of monomials?

a single polynomial it only has one variable


Which algebraic expression is a polynomial with a degree of 4?

A polynomial is made up of one or several monomials (terms added or subtracted together). The term with the highest degree should have a degree of 4. To get the degree, if it's a single variable, the degree is the power to which it is raised; if there are several variables, add all the powers together.


Are all algebraic expression a polynomial expression?

Not really.For example: x can be considered and algebraic expression by itself, however it is only a single variable, so by definition it is not a polynomial expression (multiple-number expression).


How do you put a polynomial in standard form?

For a polynomial in a single variable you start with the term containing the highest power of that variable and then follow with the next highest power and so on. For polynomials is several variables, you first group them by the sum of the powers of all the variables (remember that y is y^1). Then, you order each group by the power of one variable, then another variable and so on.


How can you know that a term is polynomial?

A [single] term cannot be polynomial.


What is the coefficient of the term of degree 4 in this polynomial 4x8 plus 5x4-2x3 plus x2-1?

For a single term, the "degree" refers to the power. The coefficient is the number in front of (to the left of) the x.


What is is an equation with more than one variable called?

Simultaneous equation* * * * *No, simultaneous equations are two or more equations that have all to be true at the same time (simultaneously) for the solution.An equation with more than one variable is a multivariate equaion.Area = 0.5*Length*Height or a = 0.5*l*h for the area of a triangle has more than one variables, but it is certainly not simultaneous.An equation with a variable is called a single variable equation. An equation that has more than one variable is called as a multi-variable equation. A polynomial equation has one variable in different powers: a common example is quadratic equations.


Why is it that monomial is a polynomial?

A monomial is simply a special case of a polynomial - one with a single term.
