QuestionFind the degree of the polynomial $-8 y^{7}-y^{3}+8+2 y^{6}$ .

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The polynomial is $-8 y^{7}-y^{3}+8+ y^{6}$

STEP 2

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial.

STEP 3

Identify the power of each term in the polynomial.
The power of the first term is7, the power of the second term is3, the third term is a constant and has no variable, and the power of the fourth term is6.

STEP 4

The degree of the polynomial is the highest power among these, which is7.
So, the degree of the polynomial $-8 y^{7}-y^{3}+8+2 y^{6}$ is7.
