********ANSWERS********
1. 2
2. 5
3. 4
To find the degree of a polynomial, add the exponents up and then find the sum. That is your degree.
-------------------------------------------
4. -3x^ + x* - 5x + 5
5. 16m*n* - 2mn + 11
Add or subtract SIMILAR terms.
------------------------------
6. 2.4 x 10'
7. 4.88 x 10 to the 9th
8. 7.96 x 10'
Take the number and put a decimal in between the FIRST two numbers. Count how many digits you need to go over to reach to end of the original number.
------------------------------
9. 12a^b - 28ab^
10. 8x'y - 12x`y^ + 4x*y'
Simply use the distributive property. remember to add of subtract SIMILAR terms!
