Find the Degree, Leading Term, and Leading Coefficient x^2-10x^3-1/7

$x^{2} - 10 x^{3} - \frac{1}{7}$

Reorder $x^{2}$ and $- 10 x^{3}$ .

$- 10 x^{3} + x^{2} - \frac{1}{7}$

The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms.

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

$- 10 x^{3} \to 3$

$x^{2} \to 2$

$- \frac{1}{7} \to 0$

The largest exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

$3$

The leading term in a polynomial is the term with the highest degree.

$- 10 x^{3}$

The leading coefficient of a polynomial is the coefficient of the leading term.

The leading term in a polynomial is the term with the highest degree.

$- 10 x^{3}$

The leading coefficient in a polynomial is the coefficient of the leading term.

$- 10$

List the results.

Polynomial Degree: $3$

Leading Term: $- 10 x^{3}$
