Question

Identify the monomial.

• A. $4+5x^2$
• B. $6x^2{y}^2$
• C. $3abc+5bc$
• D. $ab+bc+ac$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $6x^2{y}^2$

$\text{Expressions that contain only one}\text{term is called a monomial.}$

$4+5x^2\text{has two terms. Hence it}\text{is a binomial.}$

$6x^2{y}^2\text{has only one term.}\text{So it is called a monomial.}$

$3abc+5bc\text{has two terms. Hence it is}\text{a binomial.}$

$ab+bc+ca\text{has three terms. Hence,}\text{it is an example of trinomial.}$
