Question

How do you find the degree of `-7z`?

Answer 1

Degree is `1`

Explanation:

The degree of a monomial/polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable.

Given: `-7z`

This monomial is `-7z^1`. Usually we write `z` instead of `z^1`.

This means that the highest exponent of the variable is `1`. This means the monomial is of degree `1`.
