Why linear polynomial cannot be factorised?
It can: For example, the linear polynomial 2x + 4 can be factorised into 2 times (x+2) So the question is inappropriate.
What is A polynomial of degree 1 called?
It is a linear expression.
Is -4x a polynomial?
Yes, -4x is a polynomial. A polynomial is an expression that consists of variables raised to non-negative integer powers, multiplied by coefficients. In this case, -4 is the coefficient and x is the variable raised to the first power, which meets the criteria for a polynomial. Thus, -4x is a linear polynomial.
Why is a degree 1 polynomial equation ax plus by equals 0 called a linear equation?
A linear equation is one which represents a straight line. When drawn (y plotted against x), a degree 1 polynomial produces a straight line.
When can you say that an algebraic expression is a polynomial?
A polynomial is a linear combination of non-negative integer powers of a variable. A linear combination means you can multiply the terms by constant numbers before summing them. The terms can consists of only positive integer powers of the variable or a constant.
