Question

Classify the following into monomials, binomial and trinomials.

(i) -6

(ii) -5 + x

(iii) 32x – y

(iv) 6x2
+5x-3

(v) z2
+2​

Answer 1

Answer:

-6 is monomial because it has one term

-5+x is binomial because it has two terms

6x2+5x-3 is trinomial because it has three terms

z2+2 is binomial because it has two terms

Answer 2

Given: The the functions are-

$(i) -6 \\ (ii) -5 + x \\ (iii) 32x – y \\ (iv) 6 {x}^{2} +5x-3 \\ (v) {z}^{2} +2$

To find: We have to classify the functions into monomials, binomial and trinomials.

Solution:

The functions which have one term are called a monomial expression.

The functions which have two terms are called a binomial expressions.

Functions that have three terms are called trinomial expressions.

-6 is monomial as it has one term.

-5+x is binomial as it has two terms.

32x-y is binomial as it has two terms.

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

is trinomial as it has three terms.

${z}^{2} + 2$

is binomial as it has two terms.
