This is a
7th degree polynomial:

This guy has
7
letters...
The degree is
7.
This is a
1st degree polynomial:

This guy has
1
letter...
The degree is
1.
What about this guy?

How
many letters does he have?
ZERO!
So, he's a zero degree
polynomial.
By the way, the
coefficients don't have anything to do with the degree.
YOUR TURN:
Find the degree:

Before we go on, I
want you to know that Algebra isn't going to be just a
bunch of weird words that you don't understand. I
just had to start with some words at the beginning so
you'd know what the heck I'm talking about!
