Find the Degree 7x-4x^5+3x^4-6x^2

$7 x - 4 x^{5} + 3 x^{4} - 6 x^{2}$

Step 1

Identify the exponents on the variables in each term, and add them together to find the degree of each term.

$7 x \to 1$

$- 4 x^{5} \to 5$

$3 x^{4} \to 4$

$- 6 x^{2} \to 2$

Step 2

The largest exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

$5$
