Which algebraic expression is a trinomial?
x3 + x2 - √1, 2x3 - x2 , 4x3 + x2 - 1/x, x6 - x +√6
Solution:
“A trinomial is an algebraic expression that has three non-zero terms”.
(i) The given algebraic expression, x3 + x2 - √1, is a trinomial with one variable ‘x’, having three non-zero terms.
(ii) The given algebraic expression, 2x3 - x2, is NOT a trinomial. This expression is a binomial with one variable ‘x’, having two non-zero terms.
(iii) The given algebraic expression, 4x3 + x2 - 1/x, is a trinomial with one variable ‘x’, having three non-zero terms.
(iv) The given algebraic expression, x6 - x +√6, is a trinomial with one variable ‘x’, having three non-zero terms.
Which algebraic expression is a trinomial?
x3 + x2 - √1, 2x3 - x2 , 4x3 + x2 - 1/x, x6 - x +√6
Summary:
The algebraic expressions, x3 + x2 - √1, 4x3 + x2 - 1/x, x6 - x +√6 are trinomial and 2x3 - x2 is a binomial.
