Solution

The correct option is B

5xy + 9yz + 3zx + 4y


If two monomials are added, we may get a monomial or a binomial as the sum.

Consider 2a + 5a = 7a is a monomial because 2a and 5a are like terms.

2a + 5b = 2a + 5b is a binomial because 2a and 5b are unlike terms.

When a monomial is added to a monomial, we can never get trinomial.

Hence, the given statement is false.
