question help: video written example
For the term \(-4x^4\):
Step1: Recall degree of a term
The degree of a term with a single variable \(x\) (like \(ax^n\)) is the exponent of \(x\). For \(-4x^4\), the exponent of \(x\) is \(4\).
Step1: Recall degree of a constant term
A constant term (a term without a variable) can be thought of as \( - 3x^0\) (since \(x^0 = 1\) for \(x
eq0\)). So the degree is \(0\).
Step1: Recall degree of a term
For the term \(-5x^2\), the exponent of \(x\) is \(2\), so the degree is \(2\).
