Answer:
11. 4
12. 2
13. 2
14. 2
15. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Now that you already know how to find the degree of a monomial, we move to the degree of a polynomial. A polynomial is a sum of monomials. Each monomial that is part of a polynomial is called a term of the polynomial.
To find the degree of a polynomial, find the degree of each term of the polynomial. Then the highest degree of all the monomials is the degree of the polynomial.
11.
4x³y has degree 4
3x²y² has degree 4
-y³ has degree 3
The highets degree of all terms is 4, so the degree of the polynomial is 4.
12.
a has degree 1
b has degree 1
-c² has degree 2
The degree of the polynomial is 2.
13.
The degrees of the terms are, in order, 2, 2, 2.
The degree of the polynomial is 2.
14.
The degrees of the terms are, in order, 1, 2, 1.
The degree of the polynomial is 2.
15.
The degrees of the terms are, in order, 3, 2, 1.
The degree of the polynomial is 3.
