Question

Match the following columns
$\begin{array}{cc}P\left(x\right)& \text{Type of Polynomial}\\ a)40x-323& 1)\text{Quadratic Polynomial}\\ b)x^3+456x^2-6x+11& 2)\text{Linear Polynomial}\\ c)91x^2-5x+\sqrt{2}& 3)\text{Cubic Polynomial}\end{array}$

• A. a-2, b- 1, c -3
• B. a-3, b- 2, c -1
• C. a-1, b- 3, c -2
• D. a-2, b- 3, c -1

Answer 1

The correct option is D a-2, b- 3, c -1

Polynomial of degree one is called a linear polynomial
$40x-323$ is a polynomial in degree 1 and hence its linear polynomial.
Polynomial of degree two is called a quadratic polynomial
$97x^2-5x+\sqrt{2}$ is a polynomial in degree 2 and hence its quadratic polynomial.
Polynomial of degree 3 is called a cubic polynomial.
$x^3+456x^2-6x+11$ is a polynomial in degree 3 and hence its cubic polynomial.
