Question

How would I classify these three polynomials by degree and number of terms?
8a – 5
3x + y + z
6x2

Answer 1

By Degree:
---------------
The first two are only to the first degree (power) so they are linear.

So these two have 1 degree, so they are Linear:
8a – 5
3x + y + z

And the second one is the second degree, so it is a quadratic:
6x2

Answer 2

mono- one
bi - two
tri- three

Answer 3

By term:
------------

First one has two terms, so it is a binomial
Second one has 3 terms, so it is a trinomial
and third has 1 term, so it is monomial.

Answer 4

Thanks so much :3

Answer 5

No problem kiddo.
