Question

is 4/x a polynomial or not

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial comes from poly- (meaning "many") and -nomial (in this case meaning "term") ... so it says "many terms"

A polynomial can have:

constants (like 3, −20, or ½)

variables (like x and y)

exponents (like the 2 in y2), but only 0, 1, 2, 3, ... etc are allowed

that can be combined using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division ...

... except ...

... not division by a variable (so something like 2/x is right out)

So:

A polynomial can have constants, variables and exponents,  

but never division by a variable.

❤Answer:

❇Polynomial definition:

✔A polynomial is a monomial or the sum or difference of monomials. Each monomial is called a term of the poynomial

⏩Terms are separated by addition signs and subtraction signs, but never by multiplication signs

✨A polynomial with one term is called a monomial

✨A polynomial with two terms is called a binomial

✨A polynomial with three terms is called a trinomial

⏩So, 4/x is a polynomial...
