Write the degree of the polynomial given below:
$y - 6 y^{2} + 5 y^{8}$

Open in App

Solution

Degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of the degree of all its terms.
Degree of $y = 1$
Degree of $- 6 y^{2} = 2$
Degree of $5 y^{8} = 8$
Hence, degree of the polynomial $y - 6 y^{2} + y^{8}$ is $8$ .
