Question

What is the degree of the polynomial $x^2-5x-x^5-\frac{5x^7}{6}+11$.

• A. 7

Answer 1

The correct option is A 7
Given: $x^2-5x-x^5-\frac{5x^7}{6}+11$

Standard form of the given polynomial:
$-\frac{5x^7}{6}-x^5+x^2-5x+11$

So, the highest exponent of the variable in the polynomial is 7.
Hence, degree of the polynomial is 7.
