Which terms could be used as the first term of the expression below to create a polynomial with a degree of 5 written in standard form? check all that apply.
+ 2x2y2 – 3xy3
–4x3y2
x3
8.4x4y2
5x4y
–xy3

Option 2 -

Option 5 -

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Which terms could be used as the first term of the expression below to create a polynomial with a degree of 5 written in standard form?

Solution :

The polynomial with a degree of 5 means the polynomial of highest power must be 5.

Now, we check one by one,

1) - the highest degree is 4

2) - the highest degree is 5

3) - the highest degree is 3

4) - the highest degree is 6

5) - the highest degree is 5

6) - the highest degree is 4

Therefore, In the above options- option 2 and 5 has the highest degree 5 which means they both have a polynomial with a degree of 5.
