They are all polynomials. sqrt of x is the same thing as x^1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

A, D, E, F are. Others are not. B has x in radical, and C has variables in the denominator.

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Even if the variables are in the radicals, you can still express them as: \[x^{-n} \] similarly, \[\sqrt{x} = x ^{\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }}\]

OpenStudy (abb0t):

in the denom*

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

That's not a polynomial, though. In a ploynomial, variables can only have non-negative exponents.

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Oh sh*t. You're right. My bad.
