Determine whether the following function is a polynomial function. If the function is a polynomial function, state its
degree. If it is not, tell why not. Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant
term.
$$g(x) = \frac{1-x^3}{4}$$
Determine whether g(x) is a polynomial or not. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to
complete your choice.
A. It is a polynomial of degree
(Type an integer or a fraction.)
B. It is not a polynomial because the variable x is raised to the
(Type an integer or a fraction.)
power, which is not a nonnegative integer.
C. It is not a polynomial because the function is the ratio of two distinct polynomials, and the polynomial in the
denominator is of positive degree.
