Determine whether the following function is a polynomial function. If the function is a polynomial function, state its degree. If it is not, explain why not. Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant term. f(x) = 5x + x^6 Determine whether f(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 power, which is not a nonnegative integer. (Type an integer or a fraction.) C. It is not a polynomial because the constant term is absent.
