A polynomial of order 3 (a cubic) or higher can have more than three terms. However, the the following polynomial, even though of order 7, has only 2 terms: x7 - 23.
an example of a three-term polynomial is: Ax2 + Bx + C. (that's Ax{squared})
13 is not a polynomial.
-16
2x(8x-7)
A trinomial is a polynomial. All trinomials are polynomials but the opposite is not true. a trinomial= three unlike terms. a polynomial= "many" unlike terms.

A trinomial is a polynomial with three unlike terms, ex. a+b+c, a2+b2+c2
trinomial
A trinomial.
A polynomial with three terms is called a trinomial. Example: x² + 16 + 18 is a trinomial. It has three terms (x²), (16), and (18)

A polynomial of order 3 (a cubic) or higher can have more than three terms. However, the the following polynomial, even though of order 7, has only 2 terms: x7 - 23.
this term 2x is not a polynomial. this term is a monomial. since only one term was listed it can not be a polynomial. A polynomial is like four or more terms. a trinomial is three terms and a binomial is two terms.
an example of a three-term polynomial is: Ax2 + Bx + C. (that's Ax{squared})
The only difference is that a binomial has two terms and a polynomial has three or more terms.
