Monomial The product of a constant times a variable raised to a nonnegative integer power. The degree of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of the variables.

State the coefficient and the degree of each monomial

A monomial or the sum of monomials. The degree of a polynomial is the monomial with the highest degree. Polynomial Monomial Binomial Trinomial
