$7 x^{5} + 3 x^{2} - x^{6} + 4 - 5 x$

Step 1

Identify the exponents on the variables in each term, and add them together to find the degree of each term.

$7 x^{5} \to 5$

$3 x^{2} \to 2$

$- x^{6} \to 6$

$4 \to 0$

$- 5 x \to 1$

Step 2

The largest exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

$6$
