Question

true or false an expression must have a monomial of degree 1 or higher to be a polynomial

Answer 1

I think its true am I right?

Answer 2

Nope, it is false.
A monomial is a monomial no matter how its exponent is because MONOmial is a POLYnomial with only 1 term.

Answer 3

x is a monomial
x^2 is a monomial
x^(10) is a monomial
but x+2 is a polynomial (you have 2 terms on it)

Answer 4

they use binomial to indicate the expression has 2 terms on it
trinomial for 3 terms
and polynomial for more than 3
However, in English, more than 1 is plural, hence 2 terms and up is called polynomial

Answer 5

I think you are right @briana983
