find the number with the highest exponent, that exponent is the degree. for example, 2x to the 3rd power + 6x to the 2nd power the degree is 3

How is the degree of of the sum related to the degree of the original polynomials?

Usually the sum will have the same degree as the highest degree of the polynomials that are added. However, it is also possible for the highest term to cancel, for example if one polynomial has an x3, and the other a -x3. In this case, the sum will have a lower degree.

What is the best way to solve second degree equations?

The answer depends on whether the equations are second degree polynomials, second degree differential equations or whatever. The methods are very different!


All polynomials have at least one maximum?

Not quite. The point at infinity cannot be regarded as a maximum since the value will continue to increase asymptotically. As a result no polynomial of odd degree can have a maximum. Only polynomials of an even degree whose leading coefficient is negative will have a global maximum.


How can you get the degree of the polynomials?

The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms.The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables.7x3y2 + 15xy6 + 23x2y2The degree of the first term is 5.The degree of the second term is 7.The degree of the third term is 4.The degree of the polynomial is 7.
