The degree of a polynomial is merely the value of the highest power in the polynomial. In this case, the degree is 6 because of 4x6.
Six.
Degree = 3 # terms = 3
It is a polynomial of the fourth degree in X.
x3 + 4x2 + 6x + 24 = (x2 + 6)(x + 4)
I really want to see x^3 to represent x to the power of 3 and x3 to represent the third element of the sequence (xn). Because in Calculus, we use x3, a5, etc. all the time. Anyway 3x^3 + x + 1 is a degree 3 (highest degree in the poly.) polynomial.

it is 3. You are doing APEX right?
It is the number (WITH its sign) that comes before the x3 and so it is -2.
2x3 - 7 + 5x - x3 + 3x - x3 = 8x - 7
Anything plus 0 is itself, so x3 + 0 is x3.
x3 + 4x2 + 6x + 24 = (x2 + 6)(x + 4)
x3 + x2 + 4x + 4 = (x2 + 4)(x + 1)
x3 + 4x2 + x + 4 = (x + 4)(x2 + 1)
