6.1.1 Polynomials (continued) Example 1 Classifying Polynomials In Example 1, Prof. Burger finds the degree of polynomials.
The degree of a monomial with exactly one variable is equal to the variable’s exponent. The degree of a monomial with more than one variable is equal to the sum of the variable’s exponents.
