No. A polynomial can have as many degrees as you like.
As many as you like. A polynomial in 1 variable, and of degree n, can have n+1 terms where n is any positive integer.
False. The height of the degree does not really matter in this case. There just have to be other monomials in the problem to be considered a polynomial. "Poly" means many.
It is easy to prove that it is impossible.Given any set of n input and output values, of x and f(x) values, it is easy to prove that there is at least one polynomial of degree n-1 which will fit them. There are, therefore, infinitely many polynomials that will fit these n pairs and any additional pair of the infinitely many choices for the "next" x and f(x).It is easy to prove that it is impossible.Given any set of n input and output values, of x and f(x) values, it is easy to prove that there is at least one polynomial of degree n-1 which will fit them.

4, the same as the degree of the polynomial.
No. A polynomial can have as many degrees as you like.
As many as you like. The highest power of the variable in question (usually x) defines the degree of the polynomial. If the degree is n, the polynomial can have n+1 terms. (If there are more then the polynomial can be reduced.) But there is NO LIMIT to the value of n.
A third degree polynomial could have one or three real roots.
Sort of... but not entirely. Assuming the polynomial's coefficients are real, the polynomial either has as many real roots as its degree, or an even number less. Thus, a polynomial of degree 4 can have 4, 2, or 0 real roots; while a polynomial of degree 5 has either 5, 3, or 1 real roots. So, polynomial of odd degree (with real coefficients) will always have at least one real root. For a polynomial of even degree, this is not guaranteed. (In case you are interested about the reason for the rule stated above: this is related to the fact that any complex roots in such a polynomial occur in conjugate pairs; for example: if 5 + 2i is a root, then 5 - 2i is also a root.)
A third-degree equation has, at most, three roots. A fourth-degree polynomial has, at most, four roots. APEX 2021
As many as you like. A polynomial in 1 variable, and of degree n, can have n+1 terms where n is any positive integer.
Four.Four.Four.Four.
A polynomial of degree 4 can have up to 3 local maxima/minima.
False. The height of the degree does not really matter in this case. There just have to be other monomials in the problem to be considered a polynomial. "Poly" means many.
It can have 1, 2 or 3 unique roots.
5, Using complex numbers you will always get 5 roots.
