How is the degree of a polynomial determined?
The Degree (for a polynomial with one variable) is the largest exponent of that variable.
What is the meaning degree of polynomial?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent on any independent variable in the polynomial.
What is the degree of a polynomial having more than 1 term but with different variables?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent in the polynomial.
The degree of a polynomial is the what exponent?
highest total of the exponents
What is the exponent if an exponent is not given?
if there is no exponent shown, then the exponent is 1. ex: 41
What it the largest exponent of a polynomial?
the largest exponent of a polynomial is 2 good luck on NovaNet peoples
How is the degree of a polynomial determined?
The Degree (for a polynomial with one variable) is the largest exponent of that variable.
What is a polynomial with a degree of three?
The degree of a polynomial refers to the largest exponent in the function for that polynomial. A degree 3 polynomial will have 3 as the largest exponent, but may also have smaller exponents. Both x^3 and x^3-x²+x-1 are degree three polynomials since the largest exponent is 4. The polynomial x^4+x^3 would not be degree three however because even though there is an exponent of 3, there is a higher exponent also present (in this case, 4).
What does the word degree refer to in a polynomial?
The Degree (for a polynomial with one variable, like x) is the largest exponent of that variable.
If the coefficient of the expression ax is in fraction and the exponent is positive the expression will be a polynomial?
Not necessarily. If the exponent is not an integer then it is not a polynomial.
When is an algebraic expression considered as a non-polynomial expression?
An expression is non polynomial if it has : negative exponent fractional exponent variable exponent in the radicand
Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
What is the highest exponent in a polynomial?
That varies from polynomial to polynomial. Whatever the highest exponent is is called the "degree", so a quadratic like x2 + 2x + 8 has degree 2.
What is the meaning degree of polynomial?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent on any independent variable in the polynomial.
Can a polynomial have a variable exponent?
No. An expression can have a variable exponent (for instance, 2 to the power x, or x to the power y), but that is no longer a polynomial.
Describe a polynomial in one variable?
A polynomial has 2 or more variables. It can also have a negative exponent and a fractional exponent. It's different from a monomial.****BrandonW****
If the coefficient of the expression axn is a fraction and the exponent is positive will the expression be a polynomial?
Not necessarily. Every exponent in the exponent must be a non-negative integer. This is not what you have specified. For example, if n = 3.5, it is not a term in a polynomial expression.
