termine whether the following function is a polynomial function. If the function is a polynomial function, state its
egree. If it is not, tell why not. Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant
m
f(x) = 2x + x^5
etermine whether f(x) is a polynomial or not. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box
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.
Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant term. Select the correct choice
elow and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice
A. The polynomial in standard form is f(x) = with the leading term
(Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expressions)
and the constant
B. The function is not a polynomial
