A polynomial is an expression of various exponentials of a variable wich may or may nor have coefficients and constants. The coefficients may have a radical, square root, cube root etc, but not the variable.
A radical expression is any expression involving square roots, cube roots, etc. These may have the variable inside the radical but do not have to have them.
sq root (5) is a radical expression, so is sq root (x)
3x2 + 2x - 9 is a polynomial, so is x + sq root (5)

The radical must be identical like the expression must be identical. 2x^2+3x^2=5x^2 notice the power and bases are the same.
The answer depends on the form of the radical expression.
