The degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degrees of the polynomial's terms.
The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear on it.
The polynomial shown is:
[tex]F(x)=x^5-9x^3+2x^2-4x+10[/tex]The highest degree is x to the power of 5.
Hence, we can say that the degree of this polynomial is 5
