1st, 2nd,& 4th. If the variable is in the root or in the denominator / have a negative power, then it is not a polynomial. The 3rd one has the root of y, so it isnt a polynomial.
<span>a^3 - b^2 for a = 3 and b = 1/2
</span>3^3 - (1/2)^2
= 27 - 1/4
= 26 3/4
6/6 but it simplifies to 1
Answer:
Option b
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value is a function that transforms any value x into a positive number.
Therefore, for the function
x> 0 for all real numbers.
Then the equation:
has two cases
if
(i)
if
(ii)
We solve the case (i)

We solve the case (ii)

Then the solution is:
or
