9a^6 + 3a^5 - 4a^4 - 3a^2 +9

Question

a) what is the degree?

b) what is the leading coefficient?

c) what is the constant?

Answer 1

The degree is the largest exponent of each of its terms, which in this case is 6.

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term (9)

The constant is the term without an exponent, generally the last term (9)
