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.
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.
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent in the polynomial.
An example of a polynomial with 3 terms is 3x3 + 4x + 20, because there are 3 different degrees of x in the polynomial.
Trigonometric functions are calculated using a polynomial approximation. The exact polynomial used may be different on different calculators.
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****
It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial). It is a polynomial (monomial).
No. A polynomial is an expression of more than two algebraic terms, and usually contains different powers of the same variable.
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.
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.
