Best Answer

A linear function can only have terms containing the variable to the power 1 or constant terms. In a trinomial with one variable, therefore, either teo of the terms have the variable to the power 1 or two constant terms. In either case, the two like terms can be combined so that the expression is no longer a trinomial.
