Is the expression a monomial? Explain. qs + 5 A. No; it is a product. B. No; it is a binomial. C. Yes; it only has one term with a variable. D. Yes; it only has variables and numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many terms in the expression?

OpenStudy (precal):

monomial means 1 term

OpenStudy (anonymous):

terms are generally separated by a + or - sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it is C. then

OpenStudy (precal):

no because of the + sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look again. qs is a term, and 5 is a term, so how many terms do you have.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the prefix for 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BINOMIAL?!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i don't think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right, it's a binomial because it has two (bi) terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
