Thank You if anyone can help me with this. My textbook is kind of jumbled it and it makes it very hard to understand. Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the degree of a term is the power (exponent) to which the variable is raised
___ if there are multiple variables in a term, the degree is the sum of their exponents
polynomial terms should be written in descending degree order, with the highest degree term on the left
8t^4 + t^3 + 5t
the leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term
the degree of the polynomial is the degree of the highest term
