Determine whether the expression is a polynomial. If the expression is a polynomial, state whether it is a monomial,
binomial, or trinomial. If the expression is not a polynomial, indicate why not.
-$x ^ { 4 / 3 } - x ^ { 6 } - 1$
A)trinomial
B)monomial
C)binomial
D)not polynomial, 4/3 exponent

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The expression is not a polynomial because it contains an exponent that is not a whole number (4/3). Polynomials must have whole number exponents.
