Question
Determine which functions are polynomial functions. For those that are, identify the degree.$f(x)=7 x^{2}+9 x^{4}$
Step 1
A polynomial function is a function that can be expressed in the form $f(x) = a_nx^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + ... + a_2x^2 + a_1x + a_0$, where $a_n, a_{n-1}, ..., a_2, a_1, a_0$ are constants and $n$ is a non-negative integer. Show more…
