Answer
For the given polynomial, -5x³ + 2x²
Degree = 3rd degree
Number of terms = Binomial
Explanation
We are asked to classify the given polynomial and expression by degree and by number of terms.
-5x³ + 2x²
The degree of a polynomial is the highest power that exists in the polynomial.
And the number of terms, simply names the polynomial by using the number of terms in the polynomial.
So, for the given polynomial, the highest power in this polynomial is 3.
Hence, this polynomial is of degree 3.
And since there are only two terms in this polynomial, the polynomial is binomial.
Hope this Helps!!!
