Which of the following expressions best matches the definition of a polynomial?
Determine if the expression: 5x3yx\(\frac{5x^3y}{x}\) is a polynomial. Show your reasoning.
Is x+x2\(\sqrt{x}\)+x^2 a polynomial? Use exponent rules to justify your answer.
A rectangular plot has length L=x+2L = x + 2 and width W=x−3W = x - 3. Form the polynomial expression for the area and determine its degree.
Determine the degree of the polynomial P(x,y)=x4+2x2y3+y6P(x,y) = x^4 + 2x^2 y^3 + y^6 and justify how you found it.
