Card 1 of 20
How is the degree of a polynomial determined?
A
Leave the answer as (linear factor)(quadratic factor).
B
By the highest power of the variable.
C
By comparing the x3x^3x3 coefficients (in this case, A=2A=2A=2).
D
For the polynomial f(x)=x3−2x2+5x+6f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 + 5x + 6f(x)=x3−2x2+5x+6, possible integer roots must be factors of 6.
