Polynomials in one variable are algebraic expressions that consist of terms in the form where n is a non-negative (i.e. positive or zero) integer and a is a real number and is called the coefficient of the term. The degree of a polynomial in one variable is the largest exponent in the polynomial. Note that we will often drop the âin one variableâ part and just say polynomial. Here are examples of polynomials and their degrees. So, a polynomial doesnât have to contain all powers of x as we see in the first example.
A dependent variable is a variable whose value depends upon independent variable s. The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment or evaluated in a mathematical equation. The dependent variable is sometimes called the outcome variable.. In a simple mathematical equation, for example: a = b/c. the dependent variable, a, is determined by the values of b and c.
