Question

     Tell whether the expression is apolynomial.      If it is a polynomial,, find thedegree and classify it by the number of terms. 3 m -5 + 9 a. the expression is a polynomial, the degree is -5.binomial b. is a polynomial , the degree is 9. abinomial c. is a polynomial , the degree is -3. trinomial d. not a polynomial , because it contains a negativeexponent.      Tell whether the expression is apolynomial.      If it is a polynomial,, find thedegree and classify it by the number of terms. 3 m -5 + 9 a. the expression is a polynomial, the degree is -5.binomial b. is a polynomial , the degree is 9. abinomial c. is a polynomial , the degree is -3. trinomial d. not a polynomial , because it contains a negativeexponent.

Explanation / Answer

Polynomials contain terms in which the variables are raised towhole-number exponents. Your expression is 3m^(-5)+9. Because thepower of m is a negative in the 1st term, the expression is not apolynomial.
