A package is cube-shaped and has side lengths of (x+1) units. A polynomial is created to represent the volume of the package, V=x3+3x2+3x+1. The polynomial representing the volume of the package has a degree of _[blank]_.

Respuesta :

Answer: The polynomial representing the volume of the package has a degree of 3.

Solution:

The degree of a polynomial is the greatest exponent that has the independent variable "x". In this case is 3:

V=x^3+3x^2+3x+1

Then, the degree of the polynomial is 3.
