Expert Solution
Step 1

An algebraic expression is obtained by combining numbers and variables together with arithmetic operators.

If an expression contains only one term then it is called a monomial. Similarly and algebraic expression with 2 or 3 terms is called binomial and trinomial respectively.

And if an expression contains two or more terms then it is called a polynomial.

An algebraic expression of the form a+bx+cx2+dx3+··· is called a polynomial in one variable. Here, x is the variable and a, bc, and d are constants.

The degree of a polynomial is the greatest of the exponents (indices) of its various terms.
