Question

Write the polynomial in x using the given information.
(i) Monomial with degree 7

(ii) Binomial with degree 35

(iii) Trinomial with degree 8

Answer 1

(i) A polynomial having only one term is called a monomial. Also, the highest power of the variable in a polynomial is called the degree of the polynomial.

3x⁷ is a monomial in x with degree 7.

(ii) A polynomial having only two terms is called a binomial. Also, the highest power of the variable in a polynomial is called the degree of the polynomial.

2x³⁵ + 1 is a binomial in x with degree 35.

(iii) A polynomial having only three terms is called a trinomial. Also, the highest power of the variable in a polynomial is called the degree of the polynomial.

5x⁸ + 6x⁴ + 7x is a trinomial in x with degree 8.
