Given the equation:
-11^3x + 10x
Determine the degree of the polynomial.
Explanation:
In order to determine the degree of the polynomial, we simply needed to look at the exponents, or the magnitude that the number is being raised to. -11 has a degree of 3x, whereas 10x has a degree of 1, hence, we must reconsider that even if we have an exponential function due to the term x in the exponent, we will take it as the highest degree for out polynomial.
Final answer:
= 3x
