Find the Degree, Leading Term, and Leading Coefficient x/9-1

$\frac{x}{9} - 1$

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.

$\frac{x}{9} \to 1$

$- 1 \to 0$

The largest exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

$1$

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

$\frac{x}{9}$

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.

$\frac{x}{9}$

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

$\frac{1}{9}$

List the results.

Polynomial Degree: $1$

Leading Term: $\frac{x}{9}$
