If f(x) = 2x^5 - x^4 + x^2 - 3, and g(x) is a polynomial such that the degree of f(x) + g(x) is 3, then what is the degree of g(x)?
The degree of g(x) is also 3!
Sorry, wrong. thanks for trying!
g(x) must be degree 5 containing the terms -2x^5 + x^4 + (some coefficient)*x^3
So
f(x) + g(x) = (some coefficient ) x^3 + x^2 - 3
