Question

why 1/x-1 is not a polynomial? justify your answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

polynomial is always in the form of x²+x+c

Answer 2

Answer:

For solving this problem,first we should know "What are the conditions for being a polynomial? "

1)Any variable don't has any negative power.

2) Fractional power is also not allow.

3)any variable is not a denominator of any fraction.

Here given term is $\frac{1}{x - 1}$$= {(x - 1)}^{ - 1}$

Here power of variable is negative.

So,given term is not a polynomial.

Otherwise, here variable is denominator of a fraction.

So,by this condition we can say it is not a polynomial.
