Question

3x²(x+2)
Is this a monomial or a binomial? The parenthesizes confuse me. Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

okay so
a monomial is something that only has one term
and a binomial has two terms

so... a term is something that is added or subtracted in an equation

Answer 2

for example 3x + 2 would be a binomial because its separated by the plus sign

Answer 3

the parentheses indicate multiplication, like 2(3) = 6
so it would be a monomial since nothing is being added or subtracted :)

Answer 4

Ah! I see, thank you! I didn't even think about multiplication. Silly me :p
