A
A polynomial is a mathematical expression of one or more algebraic terms each of which consists of a constant multiplied with one or more variables raised to a non-negative integral power . For example, (a+bx+cx2) where a, b and c are constants, and x is the variable.
Degree is the highest power of the variable.
4x+2 is a polynomial of degree 1.
1(x+1)=(x+1)−1, the degree of this expression would not be non-negative. Thus, it is not a polynomial.
4x+2=0 is an equation and hence not a polynomial.
x+y is a polynomial in two variables, x and y.
