Answer
Type: binomial
Terms: $5x^3$, 6
Degree: 3
Work Step by Step
The type of the polynomial is a monomial if it has one term, a binomial if it has two terms, and a trinomial if it has three terms. This polynomial has 2 terms, therefore it is a binomial. The terms are simply the values separated by plus and minus signs: $5x^3$, 6. The degree is just the highest exponent of the variable in any of the terms, and if no x is present, the degree is 0. Therefore, the degree of this polynomial is 3.
