SOLUTION: During the period 1996-2000, the total value T (in millions of dollars) of toys imported to the United States can be modled by
T= 82.9t^3-848t^2+3030t+9610
where t is the number

Question 1014178: During the period 1996-2000, the total value T (in millions of dollars) of toys imported to the United States can be modled by
T= 82.9t^3-848t^2+3030t+9610
where t is the number of years since 1996. What is the degree of polynomial that represents T?
Thank you! Answer by Edwin McCravy(20060) (Show Source):
The largest exponent of the variable in a polynomial
is the degree. The largest exponent of the variable
t is found in the term 82.9t^3. So the degree is 3.
