anything without a variable is to the first power. To find the degree, you look at what the power of the number is and that will be the degree. The degree is the number of times your coefficient is a factor. Since the exponent is one, so is the degree.
Ex. 2x squared = 2nd degree

What is the independent variable of a variable?
Just the number, for example: 7x the variable is 7. The variable is the number without the variable(x,y,z, etc.)
What is the leading coefficient in a polynomial?
It is the number (coefficient) that belongs to the variable of the highest degree in a polynomial.
What is this polynomial's degree?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable.
Can you multiply a number with a variable and a number without one?
yes you can so like 3x*5 would =15x
Degree of a term?
the variable's exponent
How do you represent a monomial with a degree of 0?
That would be a pure number, without a variable.
What is the degree of 3x?
first degree degree is measuremed by the number of power on the variable
What is the degree of a variable in a monomial?
The number of times that the variable occurs as a factor in the monomial. In other words, the exponent of the variable, e.g., x² - x + 6 is 2nd degree.
What is the independent variable of a variable?
Just the number, for example: 7x the variable is 7. The variable is the number without the variable(x,y,z, etc.)
A single number without a variable?
Magic number
What is the classification of terms according to number and degree?
the degree of polynomial is determined by the highest exponent its variable has.
What is a number without a variable in a equation?
a constant
What is the number called that is without a variable?
A constant.
What is the leading coefficient in a polynomial?
It is the number (coefficient) that belongs to the variable of the highest degree in a polynomial.
A number without a variable or a number by itself is called a.?
Constant? not positive
A linear term has degree?
For a term with one variable, the degree is the variable's exponent. With more than one variable, the degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. This means a linear term has degree 1 and a constant has degree 0.
Definition of degree of a variable?
a letter to take the place of a number example: x+4=8
