Question

How does the definition of the prefixes mono-,bi-, and tri- help when naming polynomials

Answer 1

Answer:

They let you know the number of numbers there are/will be.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mono, being one, means there will only be one number is the equation.

Bi, being two, means there will be two numbers in the equation.

and tri, being three, means there are three numbers in the equation.

Answer 2

Answer:

helps in figuring out how many terms a polynomial would have .

Step-by-step explanation:

Mono means one , we have a kind of polynomial known as monomial which means a polynomial would have one term . ex : x

bi means two . (binomial) which means the polynomial would have two terms . ex : x^3 + x^2

tri means two . we have a kind of polynomial called trionomial . which indicated that the polynomial would have two terms . ex : x^3+x^2+4

Bonus informations

• polynomials are nothing but a variable based dialect in the language of math .
• Polynomials are a string of variabless and numbers put together .
• A constant polynomial is nothing but a monomial with degree 0 .
