What is the degree of a polynomial?

  1. The amount of solutions

  2. The order of the equation

  3. The power of the highest term

  4. The number of terms

The correct answer is: The power of the highest term

The degree of a polynomial refers to the highest power of the variable in the polynomial. Option A is incorrect because the solutions to a polynomial do not determine its degree. Option B is incorrect because the order of the equation refers to the number of terms, not the degree. Option D is incorrect because the number of terms in a polynomial does not necessarily correspond to its degree.
