Question

What is the maximum number of terms a sixth-degree polynomial function in standard form can have? I have this question and I have no idea what's the answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

The maximum number of terms is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A sixth degree polynomial has the highest polynomial power raised to the power of 6

It can be written in the form;

6x^6 + 5x^5 + 4x^4 + 3x^3 + 2x^2 + x + 1

So the maximum number of terms is;

7
