If (p(x)=0x^5+8x^3-2x+6), what will be the degree of (p(x))?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 3

The degree of a polynomial is the greatest power of the variable among terms with non-zero coefficients. Here, the coefficient of 0x^5 is 0, so this term does not determine the degree. Among the remaining terms, 8x^3 has the greatest power; therefore, the degree of p(x) is 3. Choosing 5 would be incorrect because a term with a zero coefficient is ignored. Exam tip: first remove terms whose coefficients are zero before finding the degree.
