Which term determines the degree in (p(x)=x^8+x^5+x^2+1)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(x^8\)

The degree of a polynomial is determined by the non-zero term having the greatest power of the variable. The given polynomial has \(x^8\), \(x^5\), \(x^2\), and 1; the highest power is 8 in \(x^8\). Hence, \(x^8\) determines the degree. Although \(x^5\) is the closest distractor, its power is only 5. Exam tip: compare the powers of the variable in all terms; a non-zero constant has degree 0.
