Answer 1

Hi ,

*************************************

Polynomial :

A polynomial is an expression

containing the sum of a finite

number of terms of the form

axⁿ for any real number a and

any non negative integer n .

**************************************

Now ,

Given expression x²( x - 1 )

= x³ - x²

is a polynomial .

Since powers variable is non

negative integers.

I hope this helps you.

Answer 2

• In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression consisting of variables and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables.
• An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate x is x² − 4x + 7.
