Consider the following version of Horner's method which computes a polynomial with coefficients a 1 , a 2 , ..., a n and variable k. Example: acc = 1 for i = 1 to n acc *= k acc += a[ i ] return acc...

Consider the following version of Horner's method which computes a polynomial with coefficients a₁, a₂, ..., a_n
and variable k.

Example:

  acc = 1
   for i = 1 to n
     acc *= k
     acc += a[ i ]
   return acc

Now Determine precisely what polynomial is being computed and answer the following questions about it.

What is the degree (ie, k's exponent) of the highest-degree term?

A. N+1

B. N-1

C. N

D. 0

E. 1
