Answer

$5c^6$ Degree $=6$ Type $=$ Monomial

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $=(9c^6-5b^4)-(4c^6-5b^4)$ Clear the parentheses. $=9c^6-5b^4-4c^6+5b^4$ Group like terms. $=9c^6-4c^6+5b^4-5b^4$ Simplify. $=5c^6$ The greatest exponent of $c$ is $6$, so the degree of the polynomial is $6$. There is one term, so the type of the polynomial is monomial.
