Front

What is a binomial?

Back

A binomial is a polynomial with exactly two terms, such as 3x + 4.

Front

What is a trinomial?

Back

A trinomial is a polynomial with exactly three terms, such as x^2 + 2x + 1.

Front

Define a polynomial.

Back

A polynomial is an expression that consists of variables and coefficients, combined using addition, subtraction, and multiplication, such as 4x^3 - 2x + 7.

Front

What is the degree of a polynomial?

Back

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the expression.

Front

Classify the polynomial 5x^4 - 3x^2 + 2.

Back

This polynomial is a quartic polynomial because its degree is 4.

Front
