What it the largest exponent of a polynomial?
the largest exponent of a polynomial is 2 good luck on NovaNet peoples
If the coefficient of the expression ax is in fraction and the exponent is positive the expression will be a polynomial?
Not necessarily. If the exponent is not an integer then it is not a polynomial.
Can a polynomial have a variable exponent?
No. An expression can have a variable exponent (for instance, 2 to the power x, or x to the power y), but that is no longer a polynomial.
What are quadratic polynomial quartic polynomial constant polynomial and quintic polynomial?
Those words refer to the degree, or highest exponent that modifies a variable, or the polynomial.Constant=No variables in the polynomialLinear=Variable raised to the first powerQuadratic=Variable raised to the second power (or "squared")Cubic=Variable raised to the third power (or "cubed")Quartic=Variable raised to the fourth powerQuintic=Variable raised to the fifth powerAnything higher than that is known as a "6th-degree" polynomial, or "21st-degree" polynomial. It all depends on the highest exponent in the polynomial. Remember, exponents modifying a constant (normal number) do not count.
If the coefficient of the expression axn is a fraction and the exponent is positive will the expression be a polynomial?
Not necessarily. Every exponent in the exponent must be a non-negative integer. This is not what you have specified. For example, if n = 3.5, it is not a term in a polynomial expression.
