Question

Which of the following expressions are polynomials? In case of a polynomial, write its degree.

(i) $\frac{x^{2}}{2} - \frac{2}{x^{2}}$

(ii) $\sqrt[2]{2} x^{2} - 8$

(iii) $\frac{1}{2 x^{2}}$

Open in App

Solution

(i) $\frac{x^{2}}{2} - \frac{2}{x^{2}}$ . This is an expression having a negative integral power of x i.e. −2. So, it is not a polynomial.

(ii) $\sqrt[2]{2} x^{2} - 8$ is an expression having an only non-negative integral power of x. So, it is a polynomial. Also, the highest power of x is 2, so, it is a polynomial of degree 2.

(iii) $\frac{1}{2 x^{2}}$ is an expression having a negative integral power of x. So, it is not a polynomial.
