Given:
[tex]x^{8}+2 x^{4}-4 x^{3}+x^{2}-1[/tex]
To find:
The coefficient of the term of degree 4.
Solution:
Given polynomial is [tex]x^{8}+2 x^{4}-4 x^{3}+x^{2}-1[/tex].
Degree means power of the variable x.
The term which contains degree 4 is [tex]2x^4[/tex].
Coefficient of [tex]2x^4[/tex] is 2.
Therefore the coefficient of the term of degree 4 in the polynomial is 2.
