Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the polynomial P(x) = 5x^4 - 2x^3 + x - 7, what is the constant term?
  • Step 1: Identify the polynomial given, which is P(x) = 5x^4 - 2x^3 + x - 7.
  • Step 2: Look for the term in the polynomial that does not have a variable (x) attached to it.
  • Step 3: In the polynomial, the term -7 does not have x, so it is the constant term.
  • Step 4: Conclude that the constant term in the polynomial P(x) is -7.
