Find the degree of the polynomial: a^3+3a^2−5a

The degree of the polynomial is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

To Find:

The degree of the polynomial= ?

Solution:

The degree of the polynomial   is the value of the greatest exponent of any expression (except the constant ) in the polynomial. To find the degree all that you have to do is find the largest exponent in the polynomial

Here in the given polynomial

The terms are

The term   has  the largest exponent of  3

Note:  The degree of the polynomial does not depend  on coefficients of the terms
