Briefly: A polynomial consists only of powers of the variables - ie the variables multiplied by themselves or one another. A non polynomial can include any other function such as trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic etc.

What is alike of polynomials and nonpolynomial?
Polynomials and nonpolynomial expressions both represent mathematical functions and can be used to model relationships between variables. They share the property of being defined over real or complex numbers, and both can appear in equations and inequalities. However, polynomials consist solely of non-negative integer exponents on their variables, while nonpolynomials may include variables raised to fractional or negative exponents, transcendental functions, or other forms that do not fit the polynomial criteria.
What is the degree of a polynomial having more than 1 term but with different variables?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent in the polynomial.
What is a polynomial of 3 items?
An example of a polynomial with 3 terms is 3x3 + 4x + 20, because there are 3 different degrees of x in the polynomial.
How does a scientific calculator compute the value of sin 41.5 degrees?
Trigonometric functions are calculated using a polynomial approximation. The exact polynomial used may be different on different calculators.
Describe a polynomial in one variable?
A polynomial has 2 or more variables. It can also have a negative exponent and a fractional exponent. It's different from a monomial.****BrandonW****
Is this a polynomial or binomial or trinomial 4x2?
It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial).
Is 5r plus 9r polynomial?
No. A polynomial is an expression of more than two algebraic terms, and usually contains different powers of the same variable.
How do you answer polynomial?
You can evaluate a polynomial, you can factorise a polynomial, you can solve a polynomial equation. But a polynomial is not a specific question so it cannot be answered.
Is matrix polynomial and polynomial matrix same?
No. A matrix polynomial is an algebraic expression in which the variable is a matrix. A polynomial matrix is a matrix in which each element is a polynomial.
What is the difference between polynomial and non polynomial time complexity?
Polynomial vs non polynomial time complexity
Is factoring 3 terms different if the polynomial has more than one variable?
Yes.
Why the graph of a polynomial function with real coefficients must have a y-intercept but may have no x-intercept?
For a polynomial of the form y = p(x) (i.e., some polynomial function of x), having a y-intercept simply means that the polynomial is defined for x = 0 - and a polynomial is defined for any value of "x". As for the x-intercept: from left to right, a polynomial of even degree may come down, not quite reach zero, and then go back up again. A simple example is y = x2 + 1. Why is the situation for "x" and for "y" different? Well, the original equation is a polynomial in "x"; but if you solve for "x", you don't get a polynomial in "y".
