Answer:

C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is a function where the only operation is an exponent on the variable. It can have just one term or many terms. For example, x^2 is a polynomial but x^2 / x+3 is not since it also contains division. This is a rational. Using this definition then only C and E are polynomials.

Choice A has a rational term. This is not polynomial.

Choice B has an exponent of -2 which is actually division. This is rational and not polynomial.

Choice D has a radical term with the variable. This is not polynomial.

4. Give an example of a like term for each of the following: a. 144 b. -95 c. 200 d. h²

Answer: $1, -2, 3, 2h^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

what is... a LIKE TERM????

a like term is a term that you can easily combine in an algebra equation. you can combine them because they share the same terms. FOR EXAMPLE.... YOU CAN COMBINE THESE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE EQUAL SIGN:

$2x+3x=0$

$5x=0$

so for a, b, and c... its basically any number that doesnt have a variable attached to it. THEY COULD BE ANYTHING. like 1, -2, and 3. but for d... its a different story.... because there is $h^{2}$ so a like term could be 2 $h^{2}$

notice that i wrote -2 for b... well theoretically it doesnt even have to be negative because you can combine a negative integer with a positive integer! i just made it negative for convenience....
