Question

State the degree and leading coefficient of the polynomial in one variable. If it is not a polynomial in one variable, enter NONE for both degree and leading coefficient.



𝑢3+4⁢𝑢2⁢𝑡2+𝑡4

Multiple choice question.

A)
not a polynomial in one variable because there is a variable degree 4


B)
not a polynomial in one variable because there are two variables, 𝑢 and 𝑡


C)
leading coefficient = 4


D)
not a polynomial in one variable because the sum of the coefficients is less than 7

Answer 1

B) not a polynomial in one variable because there are two variables, u and t.

(So degree = NONE and leading coefficient = NONE.)
