What is a polynomial?
If it is a polynomial:
what is the degree?
what is the leading coefficient?
-4(a+5)
-1(3b^{2}+2b-1)
-\frac{1}{2}(2m-5)
Determine if the expression is a polynomial or not:
Polynomial
NOT polynomial
State the degree for
State the leading coefficent for
Is \frac{1}{2}x^{2}-7y a polynomial? If so, state the degree. If not, explain why.
Is \frac{ab^{3}-1}{az^{4}+3} a polynomial? If so, state the degree. If not, explain why.
Is 2x^{2}-3x+5 a polynomial? If so, state the degree. If not, explain why.
