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!

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.
