After simplifying (3x^5(x^2-1)-3x^7+8x^4), what is the degree?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 5

First expand the bracket: \(3x^5(x^2-1)=3x^7-3x^5\). Therefore, the expression becomes \(3x^7-3x^5-3x^7+8x^4=-3x^5+8x^4\). The terms \(3x^7\) and \(-3x^7\) cancel. The highest power of \(x\) in the remaining polynomial is 5, so its degree is 5. Option 7 may seem tempting before simplification, but its term cancels out. Exam tip: Always simplify a polynomial completely before finding its degree.
