Write the degrees of each of the following polynomials:$5y - \sqrt2$
Given:
$5y - \sqrt2$
To do:
We have to find the degree of the given polynomial.
Solution:
Degree of a polynomial:
A polynomial's degree is the highest or the greatest power of a variable in a polynomial equation.
To find the degree, identify the exponents on the variables in each term, and add them together to find the degree of each term.
In $5y - \sqrt2$, the term $5y$ has a variable of power $1$ and the term $-\sqrt2$ has a variable of power $0$.
Therefore, the degree of the given polynomial is $1$.
