Write the correct alternative answer for each of the following questions.

What is the degree of the polynomial 2x2 + 5x3 + 7?

The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its monomials (individual terms) with non-zero coefficients.


Therefore, the degree of this polynomial is 3


Option (B) is not correct as the degree does not match to the highest degree of the variable.


Option (C) is not correct as the degree does not match to the highest degree of the variable.


Option (D) is not correct as the degree does not match to the highest degree of the variable.


So option A is correct.
