Question:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It says write the degree of the following polynomials in standard form
\n" ); document.write( "X+4x^2+5+2x^4
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2+5x-X^3+1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of the terms of the polynomial.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here,-
\n" ); document.write( "\"+X%2B4x%5E2%2B5%2B2x%5E4+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Degree of x = 1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Degree of 4x^2 = 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Degree of 5 = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Degree of 2x^4 = 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here the highest degree is 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the degree of the polynimial, \"+X%2B4x%5E2%2B5%2B2x%5E4+\" is = 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Similarly for the second question, \"+3x%5E2%2B5x-X%5E3%2B1\", degree is \"3\" beacause 3 is the highest exponent of the terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To write these polynomials in standard form, you have to write the terms in increasing or decreasing order.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%5E4%2B4x%5E2%2Bx%2B5\" and\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-x%5E3+%2B3x%5E2+%2B5x+%2B1+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
