\a)
\Given function f(x) = 5x² + 2x - 7
\degree :
\The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms when the polynomial is expressed in its canonical form consisting of a linear combination of monomials.
\leading coeficient :
\The coefficient of the term with the highest degree (greatest power of x) is called the leading coeficient and cannot equal 0.
\constant term :
\The term for which degree is zero.
\The degree = 2
\The leading coefficient = 5
\The constant term = -7
